Turkey Kielbasa Choucroute

Ingredients

• 2 pounds refrigerated sauerkraut, drained
• Cooking spray
• 1 1/2 cups chopped onion
• 3 cups sliced peeled Golden Delicious apple
• 1 cup riesling or other dry white wine
• 1 cup fat-free, less-sodium chicken broth
• 1 teaspoon caraway seeds
• 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
• 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
• 1 bay leaf
• 2 (14-ounce) packages turkey kielbasa, cut into 18 pieces

Preparation

1. Soak sauerkraut in cold water 10 minutes. Drain in a colander; press to remove excess moisture.
2. Heat a Dutch oven over medium heat. Coat pan with cooking spray. Add onion to pan; sauté 5 minutes or until tender. Stir in sauerkraut, apple, and next 6 ingredients (through bay leaf); bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer 30 minutes, stirring occasionally or until apple is just tender.
3. Preheat broiler.
4. Place kielbasa on a baking sheet; cut several 1/4-inch-deep slits in each piece. Broil 8 minutes or until lightly browned, turning occasionally. Nestle kielbasa pieces into sauerkraut mixture; cover and simmer 15 minutes. Uncover; cook 5 minutes or until liquid almost evaporates. Discard bay leaf.
