The inspiration for this recipe came from Southern Cast Iron magazine. They used bacon for this recipe, however, I wanted to make it more like a one-pot meal, so I used Kielbasa instead. I never thought I liked lima beans until making this recipe, now I love them. For a heartier meal, add a skillet of hot cornbread, fresh from the oven, or piping hot homemade biscuits. You will have a Southern meal fit for the king of any castle.
