Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 1 medium, finely chopped yellow onion
- 2 stalks, finely chopped celery
- 2 cloves, minced garlic
- 0.5 teaspoons dried thyme
- 0.5 teaspoons dried sage
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 1.5 cups chicken or vegetable broth
- 3 cups dry stuffing mix (herbed breadcrumbs)
- 2 tablespoons, chopped (optional for garnish) fresh parsley
Instructions
In a large skillet, melt butter over medium heat.
Add the finely chopped onion and celery to the skillet. Sauté for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened and translucent.
Stir in the minced garlic, dried thyme, dried sage, salt, and black pepper. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Pour the chicken or vegetable broth into the skillet. Increase the heat slightly and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
Once the broth is simmering, gradually stir in the dry stuffing mix. Mix well to ensure the breadcrumbs absorb the liquid evenly.
Reduce the heat to low and cover the skillet with a lid. Let the stuffing cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring once or twice to avoid sticking to the pan.
Remove the skillet from heat and fluff the stuffing with a fork. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
Transfer the stuffing to a serving dish and garnish with fresh parsley, if desired. Serve warm as a side dish.
