Maxwell Street Polish
This Chicago classic consists of grilled or fried polish sausages topped with yellow mustard, sweet grilled onions, and spicy sport peppers on a bun.
Ingredients
For the onions
- 2 Tablespoons Oil
- 1 Large yellow onion thinly sliced
- Kosher salt to taste
For the sausages
- 2 Tablespoons oil
- 8 Polish sausages
- 8 Poppy seed or plain hot dog buns
- Yellow mustard
- Picked sport peppers (optional)
Instructions
- Make the onions. In a large nonstick skillet, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the onions and let them sit for a few minutes to develop some color, then stir. Continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until the onions are browned and translucent, but not quite caramelized. About 20 minutes.
- Remove the onions to a bowl and cover with foil to keep warm. In the same pan that the onions were cooked in, heat the additional 2 tablespoons of oil and add the sausages. Working in batches, cook the sausages for 5 minutes on each side, until browned and crisp.
- Place the buns on a plate and cover with a damp paper towel. Microwave for 15-20 seconds until warmed and steamy.
- Add a sausage to each bun and top with the onions, yellow mustard and sport peppers, if using.
- Enjoy!
