Ingredients
- 8 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 large yellow onion
- 3 celery stalks
- 2 garlic cloves
- 10 cups stale bread cubes (day-old, roughly ½-inch cubes)
- 2.5 cups chicken or vegetable broth
- 2 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1.5 teaspoons dried sage
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoons ground black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
Step 2
Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion and celery, and cook for 5–7 minutes until softened and translucent. Add the minced garlic and sauté for an additional 1 minute.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked vegetables with the bread cubes. Toss until evenly mixed.
Step 4
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the broth, eggs, parsley, thyme, sage, salt, and pepper.
Step 5
Pour the liquid mixture over the bread and vegetable mixture, and gently toss until the bread is evenly moistened. Let the mixture sit for 5–10 minutes to absorb the liquid.
Step 6
Transfer the stuffing mixture to the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly. Cover the dish with aluminum foil.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. Then, remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the top is golden and slightly crisp.
Step 8
Remove the stuffing from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
