Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 medium yellow onion, finely chopped
- 2 stalks celery, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 cups chicken or vegetable broth
- 1 teaspoon dried sage
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 6 cups day-old bread, cubed
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (optional for garnish)
Instructions
In a large skillet or pot, melt the butter over medium heat.
Add the chopped onion and celery to the skillet and sauté for 5-6 minutes, or until softened.
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.
Pour in the chicken or vegetable broth and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
Add the dried sage, thyme, and parsley, along with the salt and black pepper. Stir well to combine.
Gradually fold in the cubed bread, making sure to coat it evenly with the broth and vegetable mixture.
Reduce the heat to low and cook for 3-5 minutes, gently stirring occasionally, until the bread absorbs the liquid and the stuffing reaches your desired consistency.
Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
Remove from heat and sprinkle with fresh parsley, if desired, before serving.
