My mom called this one-pan dish scraping the sides of the refrigerator for our large brood.

She would throw in whatever she had left at the end of a long week.

As one of five kids, Jessica’s mother had a lot of mouths to feed.

Her cooking helped shape Jessica into the home cook she is today.

I love to cook for people, and it is truly my catharsis," said Jessica.

The crew here at Simply Recipes can certainly relate.

Trim off the dry end of the broccoli stem, then slice the broccoli into small florets.

Heat the butter and oil in a 10 to 12-inch cast iron skillet over medium-high heat.

Add the sliced kielbasa and broccoli to the skillet along with salt and pepper to taste.

Toss occasionally as it cooks, every 4 minutes or so.

Taste for seasoning, adding salt and pepper as needed.
