Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 250°F (120°C). If using fresh white bread, arrange the bread cubes in a single layer on a baking sheet. Bake for 1 hour, or until the bread is dried out. Remove from the oven and let the cubes cool. Transfer the dried bread cubes to a large bowl.
- Melt the butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and celery, and stir constantly until the vegetables are tender and slightly browned, about 5 to 8 minutes. Turn off the heat and transfer the vegetables to a large bowl. Combine with the dried bread cubes and fresh herbs. Season with salt and ground black pepper. Stir in half of the chicken broth, and set the mixture aside.
- Whisk together the remaining chicken broth and 2 eggs, then pour this mixture into the bowl with the bread mixture. Gently stir to combine, then transfer to a butter-greased baking dish. Cover with foil and bake in the preheated oven at 356°F (180°C) for 40 minutes. Uncover and continue baking for an additional 30 minutes, or until the top is browned and crisp.
- Serve immediately, garnished with additional freshly chopped parsley on top.
Notes
- Recipe Source: Bon Appetit
- You may choose either white or wheat bread to prepare stuffing. If using fresh bread, you can dry it out in the oven or on the counter for a day or two.
- Cut the bread into uniform sizes, so they get cooked evenly.
- Use fresh herbs like sage, thyme, rosemary, and parsley to add a burst of freshness and fragrance to your stuffing. Dried herbs can be used if fresh ones are not available, but fresh herbs are preferred.
