Ingredients

• 6 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 1 large yellow onion, diced
• 3 stalks celery, diced
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 pound wild mushrooms (e.g., cremini, shiitake, oyster), cleaned and roughly chopped
• 2 teaspoons fresh thyme, chopped
• 1 tablespoon fresh sage, chopped
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
• 0.5 cup dry white wine
• 2 cups low-sodium chicken or vegetable stock
• 10 cups crusty bread, cut into 1-inch cubes
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground
• 2 large eggs, beaten

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with butter or non-stick spray and set aside.

Step 2

In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the diced onion and celery, and sauté until softened, about 5-7 minutes.

Step 3

Stir in the garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.

Step 4

Add the wild mushrooms to the skillet, and cook until they release their moisture and start to brown, about 8-10 minutes.

Step 5

Stir in the thyme, sage, and parsley, cooking for 1 more minute to release their flavors.

Step 6

Deglaze the skillet by adding the white wine. Stir and cook until most of the wine has evaporated, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 7

Remove the mixture from heat and let it cool slightly.

Step 8

In a large mixing bowl, combine the bread cubes, mushroom mixture, chicken or vegetable stock, salt, and black pepper. Toss gently to evenly moisten the bread.

Step 9

Add the beaten eggs to the mixture and fold together until well combined.

Step 10

Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking dish, pressing it down gently to create an even layer.

Step 11

Cover the dish with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.

Step 12

Remove the foil and continue baking for an additional 20 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and slightly crisp.

Step 13

Remove the stuffing from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy as a flavorful side dish!
