Ingredients

• 12 pieces Frozen pierogies (any flavor: potato, cheese, etc.)
• 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
• 1 medium Yellow onion, sliced
• 2 medium Bell peppers (assorted colors), sliced
• 3 cloves Garlic, minced
• 3 tablespoons Soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon Honey
• 1 teaspoon Sriracha (optional, for heat)
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley or green onions, chopped (for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Begin by boiling a large pot of water. Cook the frozen pierogies according to the package instructions (typically 5-7 minutes until they float to the surface). Drain and set aside.

Step 2

Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large, nonstick skillet or wok over medium-high heat.

Step 3

Add the sliced onion and bell peppers to the skillet. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until they are slightly softened.

Step 4

Add the minced garlic to the skillet and cook for another minute, stirring frequently to avoid burning.

Step 5

Push the vegetables to one side of the skillet and add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Arrange the cooked pierogies in a single layer in the empty space of the skillet. Allow them to brown slightly, cooking for 2-3 minutes on each side.

Step 6

In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, honey, and optional sriracha. Pour this mixture over the vegetables and pierogies.

Step 7

Sprinkle with salt and black pepper, and toss everything together gently to coat the pierogies and vegetables in the sauce. Cook for another 2-3 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

Step 8

Remove the skillet from heat and garnish with chopped fresh parsley or green onions before serving.

Step 9

Serve immediately as a hearty main dish or side dish.
