Skillet Pierogi with Sausage and Broccoli

3 Tbsp EVOO
1 pound sweet italian sausage
1 pound frozen pierogi, potato and cheese
1 small onion, halved and sliced
1/2 tsp oregano
Salt and pepper
12 oz frozen broccoli florets
1 red bell pepper, sliced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese

Heat 1 Tbsp EVOO in skillet.  Add sausage and cook, breaking it up into small clumps, until browned and cooked through, about 8 minutes.  Remove to large plate, leaving the drippings in pan.  Add pierogi to the pan and cook, turning, until browned and heated through, about 5 minutes.  Remove to the plate with the sausage.  Add onion, oregano, and big pinch of salt and pepper to the skillet.  Cook, stirring, until the onion is softened and just beginning to brown, about 3 minutes.  Push to one side of the skillet; add 1 more Tbsp oil and broccoli to the open side.  Season broccoli with salt and let cook, undisturbed, until it starts to brown in spots, 2-3 minutes.  Stir broccoli into onion and cook until broccoli is bright green and crisp-tender, 5 minutes.  Add bell pepper to the skillet and cook until just softened, about 2-3 minutes.  Return sausage and pierogi to the skillet and add garlic and remaining 1 Tbsp oil.  Cook, tossing, until well combined.  Season with salt and pepper and stir in Parmesan.

Serves 4
