Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 300°.
- Spread out the cubed bread on a cookie sheet tray lined with parchment paper and bake in the oven for 25 to 30 minutes or until crisp and firm. Set aside.
- While the bread is baking add a ½ stick of butter to a large frying pan or rondeau over medium-high heat and cook the sausage until broken up, lightly browned, and cooked throughout.
- Remove the sausage from the pan or pot and add the remaining ½ stick of butter.
- Add in the onions and cook for 4 to 5 minutes or until lightly browned and then add in the mushrooms and cook for a further 8-10 minutes while occasionally stirring until lightly browned.
- Place in the celery and garlic and cook for 4 to 5 minutes or just until the celery is tender.
- Transfer the cooked vegetables, sausage, and baked cubed bread to a very large bowl.
- Next, add in the herbs, salt, pepper, and chicken stock and mix gently until combined. See note about chicken stock.
- Pour in the whisked eggs and then again gently mix until combined.
- Transfer the mixture to a 13x9 casserole dish and cover with foil.
- Bake at 350° for 25 minutes, then remove the foil and bake for a further 20 minutes or until the top is lightly browned.
- Serve garnished with fresh chopped parsley.
Notes
- Make-Ahead: You can make this recipe up to 1 hour ahead, keep it covered and warm at low temperatures in the oven until ready to serve.
- How to Reheat: Add the desired amount of dressing to a casserole dish or pan, drizzle on ¼ to 1/3 cup of chicken stock, and cover with foil. Bake in the oven at 350° for 15 to 20 minutes or until warmed.
- How to Store: Cover and keep in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. You can cover and freeze it for up to 3 months. Thaw it in the refrigerator for 1 day before reheating.
- Use a little bit of stock at a time, and you may find that you need less or more when mixing it in.
- When mixing the stuffing together, do so gently so that the bread or other ingredients do not break apart.
