Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 1 tablespoon Pierogi Infused Olive Oil Blend
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
  • 1 large yellow onion thinly sliced
  • 8 ounces cremini mushrooms sliced
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 pound frozen potato and cheese pierogies
  • 1/4 cup sour cream
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill
  • 2 tablespoons sliced green onions
  • 1 tablespoon water
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice

Equipment

  • 1 Large skillet wide enough to brown the pierogies in a single layer
  • 1 Spatula for turning pierogies gently
  • 1 Cutting board for slicing onion and mushrooms
  • 1 Chef Knife for prep work
  • 1 Small bowl for mixing the sour cream finish

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Heat the Pierogi Infused Olive Oil Blend and butter in a large skillet over medium heat until the butter melts and starts to foam.
  2. Add the sliced onion and cook, stirring often, until softened and deeply golden, about 12 to 15 minutes.
  3. Stir in the mushrooms, salt, and black pepper, then cook until the mushrooms are browned and any liquid has cooked off, about 6 to 8 minutes.
  4. Transfer the onion and mushroom mixture to a plate.
  5. Add the frozen pierogies to the same skillet in a single layer and cook until browned on both sides and heated through, adding a little extra oil if the pan looks dry.
  6. Return the onions and mushrooms to the skillet and toss gently to coat.
  7. Stir together the sour cream, water, and lemon juice in a small bowl, then drizzle over the pierogies or serve on the side.
  8. Finish with fresh dill and green onions, then serve warm.

Notes

Frozen pierogies vary by brand, so watch the skillet and add a touch more oil if needed to keep the browning even. If the onions are cooking too fast, lower the heat so they turn sweet instead of scorching. For a richer finish, keep a little extra sour cream on the side. The Pierogi Infused Olive Oil Blend brings onion, garlic, dill, and herb notes that make the dish feel built from the same comfort-food language as the filling itself.
