Childhood memories of Polska Kielbasa
Some of you maybe wondering what made me think of a recipe like this. I got it from my momma!!! Lol!I remember her making this dish for my sister and I back in the 90s. That was when I fell in love with Polska Kielbasa…and why I named this recipe after her.
I’m not quite sure what made my mom think of this dish but when I would walk into the kitchen and see she was making it for dinner, i’d always get excited – that’s how much I loved it! I guess when you’re a single mother on a fixed income, you find things to put together and make a good dish out of.
Everyone knows I love white rice… kielbasa has to be my second favorite sausage of all time, and sauteed onions n peppers are just good. So it’s no surprise that I would loved this dish!
I want yall to try this recipe and let me know how it is… You can put you own little spin on it of course. I did a YouTube video for this recipe years ago and remember my subscribers telling me how they replaced the peppers with hot peppers and some said they replaced the rice with potatoes.
So feel free to customize this recipe to your liking. It’s a very versatile dish but i’d like for yall to follow the recipe to a T first and then decide if you want to make changes to it afterward.

I make a similar variation of this recipe but I use brown rice so the cook time is more like 45 minutes. I cook the rice in chicken broth and I also use 2 types of peppers..yellow and green for color, onions and chives with a bit of garlic. Mushrooms and zucchini are also sautéed with a bit of Worcester sauce, soy sauce and a splash of teriyaki for flavor 😋 👌
This is the first recipe that I’ve made in a year that when it says 30 minutes MEANS 30 minutes (or less). I usually spend 3 hours in the kitchen. This was quick, super tasty, and easy cleanup. I will definitely be making this again.
great for less fat grams since I have to watch that for hubby now and since I used the turkey kielbasa … Love it thank you again for some exact measurements so I would have equal balance of onions and peppers since i grew my own. again GREAT CHANNEL THANKS.
What happened to the pan-fried potatoes and onions recipe that was here yesterday and then disappeared when I went back to print it out? You said in your video that it was a Saturday breakfast recipe and looked very good as I would like to make it. I sent you an email yesterday asking about it. I hope it is still here someplace. Please help. Thank you.
Tasty and easy
Yes, I love it too…. that’s why I had to show yall how to make this one. And you’re right, the best part is… it’s simple and easy to make 🙂
