Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 cups yellow onions
- 1.5 cups celery
- 3 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 12 cups stale bread cubes
- 0.5 cups fresh parsley, chopped
- 2 tablespoons fresh sage, chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme, chopped
- 1 teaspoon fresh rosemary, chopped
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 3.5 cups low-sodium chicken or vegetable broth
- 2 large eggs, beaten
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish and set aside.
In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the onions and celery, cooking until softened, about 6-8 minutes. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 1 more minute until fragrant.
Place the stale bread cubes in a large mixing bowl. Add the cooked onion-celery mixture to the bowl and toss to combine.
Sprinkle the parsley, sage, thyme, and rosemary over the bread mixture. Add the salt and black pepper, and gently toss until evenly distributed.
Gradually pour in the broth while mixing, ensuring the bread absorbs the liquid. The mixture should be moist but not overly soggy.
Stir in the beaten eggs until fully incorporated.
Transfer the stuffing mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly.
Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 20 minutes or until the top is golden and slightly crispy.
Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy this sumptuous stuffing with your favorite holiday dishes!
