Ingredients

• 4 large Russet potatoes
• 4 tablespoons Butter
• 0.5 cup Milk
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 3 cups Stuffing mix (dry)
• 1.5 cups Chicken broth
• 1 medium, diced Onion
• 2 diced Celery stalks
• 2 cloves, minced Garlic
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 2 tablespoons, chopped Fresh parsley
• 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
• 0.5 teaspoon Paprika

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.

Step 2

Peel and cut the potatoes into 2-inch chunks. Place them in a large pot and cover with cold water.

Step 3

Bring the water to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork-tender.

Step 4

Drain the potatoes and return them to the pot. Add 2 tablespoons of butter, milk, salt, and black pepper. Mash until smooth and creamy. Set aside.

Step 5

In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Sauté the onion, celery, and garlic for 5-7 minutes, or until softened and fragrant.

Step 6

Add the stuffing mix to the skillet and stir to combine. Pour in the chicken broth gradually, stirring until the stuffing mix absorbs the liquid. You may use slightly less or more broth depending on desired texture.

Step 7

Spread half of the mashed potatoes in the prepared baking dish, smoothing it out evenly.

Step 8

Layer the stuffing mixture on top of the mashed potatoes, spreading it evenly.

Step 9

Spread the remaining mashed potatoes over the stuffing layer, smoothing with a spatula.

Step 10

Dot the top with the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter, sprinkle with shredded cheddar cheese, paprika, and fresh parsley.

Step 11

Bake uncovered for 25-30 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the casserole is golden on top.

Step 12

Remove from the oven and let rest for 5-10 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
