Brats & Sauerkraut
Classic German plate: two bratwurst with tangy sauerkraut and spicy mustard.
Instructions
- Heat a cast-iron skillet over medium. Add 2 bratwurst and 1/4 cup water. Cover 5 minutes so they warm through.
- Remove lid, drain excess water. Bump heat to medium-high. Brown the brats on all sides, 4 to 6 minutes total until skin is crisp and internal temp reaches 160F.
- Warm 1 cup sauerkraut in the same pan for the last 2 minutes to soak up rendered fat.
- Plate brats with sauerkraut alongside. Top with 1 tbsp spicy brown mustard.
- Optional: sear a slice of cabbage in the pan with a pat of butter for an extra side.
