Thanksgiving Herbed Stuffing
by Bob
Ingredients
  • 1 small loaf of bread, cut into 1/2in cubes with crust
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 2 carrots, diced
  • 2 celery stalks, diced
  • 3 parsley sprigs, minced
  • 1/2 tsp fresh thyme, minced
  • 8-10 sage leaves, minced
  • Olive Oil
  • Butter
  • Turkey Stock
  • Salt and Pepper
Directions

Note: You can use dried herbs if you don’t have fresh . For the bread, I used about 3/4 of a loaf of large miche for Thanksgiving.

Heat 2-3 Tbsp olive oil in large fry pan. Sauté the onion until translucent (about 5 minutes). Add the carrot and celery, season with salt and pepper and continue to sauté about 5-7 minutes. Add the herbs and sauté for about 2 minutes. Add a couple of tablespoons of butter, add bread cubes after butter is melted and drizzle a little olive oil over bread.

Add turkey stock until bread is moistened but not soggy and mix all the ingredients.

Transfer mixture to a an oven proof casserole dish and cover with lid or foil. Bake at 350 for 45-60 minutes — uncovering for 15-20 minutes if you want crusty top.
