Ingredient | Quantity |
---|---|
Kielbasa sausages | 2 (14 oz) |
Pineapple chunks (in juice) | 1 (14 oz) can |
Tamed pickled jalapeños | 1 (16 oz) jar |
Teriyaki sauce | 3 tablespoons |
Brown sugar | 1 tablespoon |
Pineapple juice (from can) | 2 tablespoons |
Jalapeño brine (from jar) | 2 teaspoons |
Garlic powder | 1 teaspoon |
Toothpicks | As needed |
Preheat your oven to 400°F (205°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Cut the kielbasa sausages into ½-inch thick rounds. Lay them out in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
Top each sausage round with one pineapple chunk and one slice of tamed pickled jalapeño. Set aside any juice from the pineapple can and jalapeño jar—you’ll use it in the glaze.
In a small bowl or measuring cup, whisk together:
Stir until the sugar dissolves and everything is well combined.
Drizzle the glaze generously over each stack. Once coated, insert a toothpick through each one to hold the layers together. (Glazing first keeps the toothpicks clean and easier to handle.)
Place the sheet in the oven and bake for 18–22 minutes, until the glaze bubbles, the kielbasa edges begin to brown, and everything is hot and caramelized.
Let the stackers rest for a few minutes before serving. These bites are best enjoyed warm and fresh out of the oven.
