I was looking for a dressing to go with a goose for Christmas when I came up with the idea to combine my 2 favorite dressings. Turned out to be a huge hit. Ingredients:
1 lb sausage (removed from casings) |
1 cup onion, chopped |
4 stalks celery, chopped |
1 medium shallot, minced |
2 garlic cloves, minced |
1 1/2 cups wild rice |
2 tablespoons olive oil |
4 cups fresh cornbread, crumbled |
2 1/2 cups chicken stock (giblet stock works best) |
2 cups water |
2 tablespoons rubbed sage |
1 teaspoon sea salt |
1 teaspoon ground black pepper |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 375°F. 2. Combine 2 cups of stock, water and rice in a medium saucepan. 3. Bring to a boil then turn down heat, cover, and simmer until tender, about 1 hour. 4. Drain, put in large mixing bowl with cornbread and set aside. 5. Heat olive oil in a large skillet. 6. Sauté onion, celery, garlic and shallot over medium heat until translucent. 7. Add sausage. Brown. 8. Add sage, salt, and pepper. 9. Add to rice/cornbread mixture. Toss. 10. Put mixture into baking dish (10 X 15 works well) drizzle with remaining stock. 11. Cook on lower shelf until top is crispy, about 25 minute. |
