Ingredients
- 1 pound Italian sausage (mild or spicy)
- 1 tablespoon Butter
- 1 medium Yellow onion, diced
- 3 stalks Celery, chopped
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
- 2 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 12 cups Bread cubes (day-old, dried or toasted)
- 2 cups Chicken broth
- 2 Eggs, lightly beaten
- 1 teaspoon Dried sage
- 1 teaspoon Dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 0 Cooking spray
Directions
Step 1
Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the Italian sausage and cook until browned, breaking it up into crumbles with a wooden spoon. Once fully cooked, remove sausage from skillet and set aside.
Step 2
In the same skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the diced onion, chopped celery, and minced garlic. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are softened and fragrant.
Step 3
Spray the crock pot with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
Step 4
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked sausage, sautéed vegetables, bread cubes, fresh parsley, dried sage, dried thyme, salt, and pepper.
Step 5
In a separate bowl, whisk together the chicken broth and eggs. Pour the mixture over the bread and sausage mixture, tossing gently until everything is evenly moistened.
Step 6
Transfer the dressing mixture to the prepared crock pot, spreading it out evenly.
Step 7
Cover and cook on LOW setting for 4 hours or until the dressing is cooked through and hot. Stir gently halfway through the cooking time if needed to ensure even cooking.
Step 8
Once done, turn off the crock pot and let the dressing sit for 10 minutes before serving.
Step 9
Serve the sausage dressing warm as a delicious side dish!
