Saute bacon bits until almost crispy. Add butter and onions and cook for about 5 minutes until onions are slightly golden.
Rinse sauerkraut in a strainer under gently running cold water and squeeze out thoroughly to remove excess water; add to the bacon and onion mixture.
Add the peeled, grated potato
Add chicken broth, brown sugar, bay leaves, and seasonings. Stir to mix thoroughly. Cook uncovered, stirring frequently until everything is heated thru, Transfer to a roasting pan. Cover and bake in 300 degree oven for 30 minutes to 1 hour until kapusta is browned slightly. Stir occasionally and add water or chicken broth if necessary
Note- We like to add chunks of kielbasa buried in the kapusta before baking.
