• Yield: Not specified

Ingredients:

• 1 kielbasa sausage, sliced
• 2 onions, sliced
• 2 green peppers, sliced
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 2-3 cups pineapple chunks in juice (reserve 1/2 cup juice)
• 1/4 cup soy sauce
• 1/4 cup light corn syrup
• 1/3 cup honey

Instructions:

1. Prepare Ingredients:

   • Slice the kielbasa sausage, onions, and green peppers.
   • Mince the garlic cloves.
   • Drain the pineapple chunks, reserving 1/2 cup of the juice.

2. Cooking Process:

   • Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

   • Add the sliced onions and green peppers to the skillet. Sauté them until they are tender, which should take about 5-7 minutes. Stir occasionally to ensure even cooking.

   • Once the onions and peppers are tender, add the sliced kielbasa sausage to the skillet. Lightly brown the kielbasa for about 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally to ensure all sides are evenly cooked.

   • Next, add the minced garlic to the skillet, stirring it into the mixture. Let it cook for about 1 minute until fragrant.

   • Add the pineapple chunks along with 1/2 cup of the reserved pineapple juice to the skillet. Pour in the soy sauce, light corn syrup, and honey.

   • Stir everything together gently to combine all the ingredients.

   • Reduce the heat to low and let the stir fry simmer for about 10 minutes. This allows the flavors to meld together and for the sauce to thicken slightly.

3. Serve:

   • Once the stir fry is ready, remove it from the heat.

   • Serve the Kielbasa Stir Fry hot over steamed rice or noodles, garnished with fresh herbs like cilantro or green onions if desired.
