Sausage Stuffing Recipe
Description
The recipe starts by cooking pork sausage until browned and crumbled, then setting it aside. Onions are sautéed in olive or coconut oil until tender, followed by mushrooms, garlic, sage, poultry seasoning, and black pepper until the mushrooms soften. This mixture provides aromatic flavor along with the sausage's seasoning.
In a large bowl, the cooked sausage and vegetable mixture are combined with cubed white bread. Chicken stock and beaten eggs are added to moisten and bind the bread cubes, ensuring the stuffing cooks with the right texture — moist but not soggy. The mixture is transferred to a baking dish and covered while baking to retain moisture, then uncovered to brown the top for a crispy finish.
This stuffing makes a hearty side dish that complements roasted meats or holiday meals. It balances savory sausage and herbs with the softness of bread and moisture from stock and eggs.
Ingredients
- 12 ounces pork sausage
- 1 tablespoon olive oil or coconut oil
- 1 medium onion diced
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 4 ounces mushrooms quartered
- 3 tablespoon poultry seasoning
- 1 tablespoon sage dry
- 24 ounces white bread loaf cut into ¾ cubes
- 2 cups chicken stock
- 2 large egg
- salt to taste
- black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350° F and spray a 9x13 baking dish with non-stick cooking spray.
- In a non-stick pan, cook the sausage about 8-10 minutes, until no longer pink, breaking it apart as you cook. Remove the sausage from the pan and place it in a bowl.
- Add the oil and onions to the pan and saute until tender, about 10 minutes.
- Then, add the mushrooms, garlic, sage, poultry seasoning and pepper and sauté until the mushrooms are tender, about 10-12 minutes.
- Break the eggs in a separate small bowl and whisk completely.
- In a large bowl, mix the cooked sausage, cooked vegetable mixture, and bread and stir to combine.
- Add in the chicken stock and beaten eggs and stir until all of the bread is moist.
- Pour the mixture into a greased baking dish and cover the dish with aluminum foil.
- Bake for 20 minutes. Then remove the foil and continue baking for an additional 10 minutes until the top is golden brown.
