Bratwurst Recipe
This Bratwurst recipe is incredibly flavorful and savory! The Brats are simmered until juicy then seared to golden perfection. This classic German recipe is great for family dinners, meal prep and leftovers!
First, add butter to a large skillet over medium heat. Once melted, add in diced onions.
Cook onions for 5 minutes or until softened. Season with sea salt. Stir occasionally to prevent burning.
Add the Bratwurst to the skillet. Pour over broth or beer.
Bring mixture to a simmer. Simmer for 20 minutes. Flip Brats every 5 minutes or so.
To get the sear, remove everything from the skillet. Turn up heat to medium high. Add in only Brats. Sear on each side for 1 minute.
Finally, serve Brats with onions.
Any type of Bratwurst works for this recipe.
Continue stirring onions to prevent burning.
Use broth or beer. It can be tough to find gluten free beer, so I usually use chicken broth or beef broth.
As the mixture simmers, it may need slightly more broth.
Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 5 days.
