Ingredients
- 1pound brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
- 1½cups cabbage kimchi
- 5tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
- Kosher salt and black pepper
- 2(13-ounce) packages fresh or frozen cheese or potato pierogies (no need to thaw)
- ½small lemon, for serving
- Handful of chopped dill, for serving
- ¾cup sour cream
- ¼cup chopped dill
- 1tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
- 1teaspoon lemon juice
- ½teaspoon kosher salt
For the Dill Sour Cream
Preparation
- Step 1
Set a rack in the lower third of the oven and heat oven to 400 degrees. Add the brussels sprouts and kimchi to a rimmed sheet pan. (A small amount of kimchi juice is fine and adds lots of flavor.) Drizzle with 2 tablespoons oil and season with salt and black pepper, and toss to combine. Transfer the sheet pan to the oven.
- Step 2
Prepare the dill sour cream: Combine the sour cream, dill, oil, lemon and salt in a small bowl and whisk to combine. If the cream is too thick, add a tablespoon of water. (You are looking for the consistency of heavy cream.)
- Step 3
After 15 minutes, remove the pan from the oven and add the pierogies. Drizzle everything with the remaining 3 tablespoons oil, and, using a spatula, toss everything together. Return to the oven, and roast until the brussels sprouts are tender, and the pierogies are puffed and golden, another 20 to 25 minutes. (Don’t flip the pierogies.)
- Step 4
Drizzle with olive oil, scatter with dill, and serve with dill sour cream and halved lemon.

It calls for fresh or frozen pierogies. Do u add them to the baking sheet frozen ? Or thaw them first?
Great flavor profile! Prepped the brussels (closer to 2 lb) and kimchi early in the day and let them sit together until time to go in the oven. (Btw - please edit Step 1 to say directly to cook them for 15 minutes!) Used frozen pierogies - they needed a few more minutes and next time I'll toss them with oil before adding to the pan to ensure more even coating. Kids and husband commented on how good it smelled cooking and it fed 5 easily.
This was a great dish! My local store didn't have kimchi so I substituted sauerkraut with red curry paste and it was delicious!
I made this and the combination of flavors was fun. The recipe fell short to me in two ways: 1) The brussels sprouts didn't fully cook. Next time, I'll put them in for another ten minutes or so. 2) The quality of your pierogis here matters a LOT, and mine were pretty so-so. If I find a pierogi that I really like, I'd try again.
I used what I had on hand which included pork dumplings rather than pierogies, and cottage cheese instead of sour cream or yogurt. The added flavor in the dumplings helped this dish along, and I honestly don't think I could improve on the texture and lighter weight of the cottage cheese. This combination is quite unusual and will make a great one-dish meal for hosting dinner with some friends.
Just not my favorite
