In just 15 minutes, make a delicious, hearty Pierogi Soup on the stove! It's so easy to make this recipe with frozen pierogis, sauerkraut, and just the right combination of spices, for a warm and cozy meal.
Melt the butter in a large pot on the stove over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook for 3 minutes. Add the pierogies and cook for an additional 4 minutes.
Add the sauerkraut and chicken broth to the pot. Season with the salt, pepper, paprika, garlic powder and oregano.
Cover and cook for 5 minutes.
Remove the pot from the heat, remove the lid and serve in bowls, optionally topped with sour cream.
Notes
If you don't like sauerkraut, you can replace it with shredded cabbage. Add the cabbage to the pot with the onion so it will cook down with the onions and pierogis.
Store leftover pierogi soup in the refrigerator for up to6 days. Reheat the soup in the microwave or on the stove.
If reheating the soup in the microwave, ladle out a single serving into a bowl and reheat for 2-3 minutes, stirring halfway through the time.
If reheating the soup on the stove, add the soup back to a pot on the stove over medium-high heat. Simmer and heat up the soup for 5-7 minutes.
