2. Simmer kielbasa and in water in a 12-inch heavy skillet, partially covered with lid, over moderately low heat until heated through, about 30 minutes (check after 15 minutes and add a little more water if skillet is almost dry).
3. During the last 10 minutes of the kielbasa cooking time, saute your pepper strips in 1 Tbsp of olive oil in a small skillet until tender.
4. Serve peppers with kielbasa pieces, sliced on the diagonal.
5. Great sides could be rice, pasta; mashed/roasted, cheese-scalloped or au gratin potatoes.
6. I made this meal with potato salad.
