Ingredients
- 3 cups Cooked chicken (shredded)
- 4 cups Cornbread (crumbled)
- 2 cups Day-old bread (cubed)
- 4 cups Chicken broth
- 1 cup Celery (diced)
- 1 cup Onion (diced)
- 1 stick Butter
- 3 Eggs
- 2 teaspoons Poultry seasoning
- 1 teaspoon Dried sage
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish and set aside.
Step 2
In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add diced celery and onion, and sauté until softened, about 5-7 minutes.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, combine the crumbled cornbread and cubed day-old bread.
Step 4
Add the sautéed celery and onion to the bowl along with the shredded chicken.
Step 5
In a separate bowl, whisk together the chicken broth, eggs, poultry seasoning, sage, salt, and black pepper.
Step 6
Pour the liquid mixture over the bread and chicken mixture, stirring until evenly moistened. The consistency should be thick but pourable. If the mixture seems too dry, add more chicken broth, 1/4 cup at a time.
Step 7
Pour the dressing mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading evenly.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the center is set.
Step 9
Let the dish cool for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy your Sunday Chicken Dressing with your favorite side dishes!
