Ingredients
- 2 rustic baguettes cut into 1/2 inch pieces (you want 8-10 cups total)
- 10 tablespoons butter divided use
- 1 cup onion finely diced
- 1 cup celery sliced
- 2 teaspoons garlic minced
- 1/4 cup sage leaves finely chopped
- 1/4 cup parsley leaves chopped, divided use
- 2 eggs
- 2 cups chicken or turkey broth
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- cooking spray
Instructions
- Leave the bread out overnight spread out on baking sheets to get stale. Alternatively, you can bake your bread cubes at 225 degrees F, stirring occasionally, until they get crisp - approximately 1 hour of bake time.
- Coat a 3 quart baking dish with cooking spray. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- Melt 6 tablespoons of butter in a large pan over medium heat. Add the onion and celery and cook for 6-8 minutes or until tender.
- Add the garlic and cook for 1 more minute.
- Place the bread cubes in a very large bowl and add the onion and celery mixture.
- Add the sage and 2 tablespoons of chopped parsley to the bowl.
- Add the eggs, chicken broth, salt and pepper to the bowl. Stir until bread is thoroughly coated and everything is combined.
- Pour the stuffing into the prepared dish. Melt the remaining 4 tablespoons of butter and drizzle it over the top.
- Cover the dish with foil and bake for 25 minutes. Uncover the dish, then bake for an additional 15 minutes or until top is golden brown.
- Cool for 5-10 minutes then sprinkle with remaining 2 tablespoons of parsley and serve.
Notes
- You can really use any bread you like in this recipe, some other great choices are focaccia, ciabatta, a multigrain loaf or even sourdough bread. You want to use a sturdy bread that will not become mushy when baked.
- If the top of your stuffing starts to look overly browned before the baking time is up, you can cover it with foil.
