Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375˚F
  2. In a large skillet, brown the sausage over medium-high heat until no pink remains. Transfer the sausage to a bowl, reserving the drippings.
  3. Add 1 tablespoon butter to the skillet along with the drippings. Add onion, celery, garlic, and poultry seasoning and cook over medium heat until softened, about 5 minutes.
  4. In a large mixing bowl, add dried bread cubes, cooled sausage, onions mixture, and fresh herbs. Toss to combine.
  5. Add 1 cup of broth, gently tossing it with the bread, and let it sit briefly to absorb. Add more broth as needed to moisten the bread cubes, you may not need all of the broth. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  6. Place in a 2 ½ qt casserole dish and drizzle with ¼ cup melted butter.
  7. Bake uncovered for 25 minutes or until golden.

Notes

  • Broth: The amount of broth needed will vary based on the type of bread used. Start with 1 cup and add more as needed to ensure the bread isn't mushy. 
  • Seasoning: Broth and sausage can vary in salt levels. It's okay to taste the stuffing for seasoning once the bread has been tossed with the broth, as all ingredients in the recipe are cooked. 
  • To Dry Bread Cubes: Cube the bread and leave on a baking tray at room temperature for at least 24 hours or up to 1 month.
  • To quickly dry bread, place the cubes in a single layer and dry in the oven at 250°F for 15 to 20 minutes. Cool before using. Measure bread cubes after drying.
  • Make Ahead  Prepare the recipe as directed without baking. Cover and refrigerate for up to 48 hours.  Remove the stuffing from the fridge at least 30 minutes before baking. Bake as directed, adding 5 to 10 minutes if needed.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
