I discovered this recipe in a four-generation family cookbook. I'm glad I gave it a try. It has become the stuffing at our holiday table. Ingredients:
1 pound bulk pork sausage |
2 cups finely chopped fresh mushrooms |
1-1/2 cups finely chopped onion |
2 celery ribs, chopped |
1/3 cup butter |
1/4 cup minced fresh parsley |
2 teaspoons dried thyme |
1/4 teaspoon pepper |
1 cup chicken broth |
4 cups day-old bread cubes |
1 package (8-3/4 ounces) whole chestnuts, chopped (about 2 cups) |
Directions:
1. In a large skillet, cook the sausage over medium heat until no longer pink; drain and set aside. In the same skillet, saute the mushrooms, onions and celery in butter until tender. Stir in the sausage, parsley, thyme and pepper. Add broth; heat through. Remove from the heat. Add bread cubes and chestnuts; toss to coat. 2. Transfer to a greased shallow 2-1/2-qt. baking dish. Cover and bake at 350° for 30 minutes. Uncover; bake 10-15 minutes longer or until heated through. Let stand for 5 minutes before serving. Yield: 8-10 servings. |
