Ingredients
1 pound Italian sausage, casings removed
1 cup yellow onion, diced
1 cup celery, diced
4 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 cup unsalted butter
10 cups cubed day-old bread (about 1-inch cubes)
1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
2 tablespoons fresh sage, chopped
2 tablespoons fresh rosemary, chopped
2 tablespoons fresh thyme, chopped
2 to 2 1/2 cups chicken broth
Salt and pepper, to taste
2 large eggs, beaten
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook sausage until browned and cooked through. Remove sausage with a slotted spoon and set aside.
In the same skillet, add butter, onion, celery, and garlic. Sauté until vegetables are soft and translucent.
In a large mixing bowl, combine bread cubes, cooked sausage, sautéed vegetables, and fresh herbs. Mix well.
Pour in 2 cups chicken broth and beaten eggs. Stir gently to combine. Add more broth if the mixture seems dry but do not soak it. Season with salt and pepper.
Transfer stuffing to a greased 9×13-inch baking dish and cover with foil. Bake for 30 minutes.
Remove foil and bake an additional 15 minutes or until the top is golden and crispy.
