Number Of Ingredients 9

1 lb buttermilk bread, cut into 1/2 inch cubes
8 tablespoons butter
2 large yellow onions, chopped medium
1 1/2 lbs fresh white mushrooms, cleaned and sliced
3 stalks celery, chopped
2 teaspoons dried tarragon
1/2 cup fresh parsley, chopped
3/4 cup chicken stock or 3/4 cup chicken broth
2 eggs, beaten

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 400 degrees.
  • Spread bread cubes in single layer on a large baking sheet.
  • Bake, stirring occasionally about 10 minutes or until golden brown.
  • Transfer to a large bowl.
  • In a large, heavy frying pan, melt the butter over medium high heat.
  • When hot, add onions and cook, stirring occasionally until golden brown.
  • About 20 minute.
  • Reduce heat to medium and add the mushrooms and celery.
  • Cook and stir until tender, about 8 minutes.
  • Add this mixture to the bread cubes along with the parsley and tarragon.
  • Add the stock to the pan you used to cook the onions, and bring to a boil scraping up any browned pieces.
  • Add hot stock to the bread mixture and season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Mix in the eggs.
  • Either stuff the turkey and bake as usual or butter a 13X9 pan and spoon stuffing into pan.
  • Cover with foil and bake at 325 degrees for 30 minutes.
  • Uncover and bake until top is golden brown, about 30 minutes longer.
  • I think this is better baked in a pan by itself than stuffed into the turkey-- but to each his own!

Categories     Beef     Roast     Christmas

Yield 4-6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 22

Stuffing
8 ounces cremini mushrooms, cleaned, stems trimmed and broken into rough pieces
1/2 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 1/2 teaspoons olive oil
1 medium onion, halved and sliced 1/4 inch thick
1/4 teaspoon table salt
1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 medium garlic clove, minced or pressed through garlic press (about 1 teaspoon)
1/2 cup Madeira or sweet Marsala wine
Beef Roast
1 beef tenderloin center-cut Châteaubriand (2 to 3 pounds), trimmed of fat and silver skin
Kosher salt and ground black pepper
1/2 cup lightly packed baby spinach
3 tablespoons olive oil
Herb Butter
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley leaves
3/4 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme leaves
1 medium garlic clove, minced or pressed through garlic press (about 1 teaspoon)
1 tablespoon whole grain mustard
1/8 teaspoon table salt
1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper

Steps:

  • For the Stuffing: Process mushrooms in food processor until coarsely chopped, about six 1-second pulses. Heat butter and oil in 12-inch skillet over med-high heat till foaming subsides. Add onion, table salt, and pepper; cook, stirring occasionally, until onion begins to soften, about 5 minutes. Add mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally, until all moisture has evaporated, 5 to 7 minutes. Reduce heat to med and continue to cook, until vegetables are deeply browned and sticky, about 10 minutes. Stir in garlic and cook until fragrant, 30 seconds. Slowly stir in Madeira and cook, scraping bottom of skillet to loosen any browned bits, until liquid has evaporated, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer onion-mushroom mixture to plate and cool to room temperature. For the Roast: Season cut side of roast with kosher salt and pepper. Spread cooled stuffing mixture over interior of roast, leaving 1/2-inch border on all sides; lay spinach on top of stuffing. Roll roast lengthwise and tie. In small bowl, stir together 1 tablespoon olive oil, 11/2 teaspoons kosher salt, and 11/2 teaspoons pepper. Rub roast with oil mixture and let stand at room temperature for 1 hour. Adjust oven rack to middle position and heat to 450. Heat remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil in 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat until smoking. Add beef to pan and cook until well browned on all sides, 8 to 10 minutes total. Transfer beef to wire rack set in rimmed baking sheet and place in oven. Roast until instant-read thermometer inserted into thickest part of roast registers 120 degrees for rare, 16 to 18 minutes, or 125 degrees for medium-rare, 20 to 22 minutes. For the Butter: While meat roasts, combine butter ingredients in small bowl. Transfer tenderloin to cutting board; spread half of butter evenly over top of roast. Loosely tent roast with foil; let rest for 15 minutes. Cut roast between pieces of twine into thick slices. Remove twine and serve with remaining butter passed separately.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of mushrooms. This will add depth of flavor to your stuffing. Some good options include cremini, shiitake, and oyster mushrooms.
  • Caramelize the onions slowly and patiently. This will develop their sweetness and flavor.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the mushrooms. This will steam them instead of browning them.
  • Season the stuffing generously. This will help to bring out all the flavors of the ingredients.
  • Add some fresh herbs, such as thyme or rosemary, to the stuffing for extra flavor.
  • Moisten the stuffing with broth or stock before baking. This will help to prevent it from drying out.
  • Stuff the turkey or chicken loosely. This will allow the stuffing to expand as it cooks.
  • Bake the stuffing at a high temperature for a short period of time. This will help to brown the top of the stuffing and keep it moist.

Conclusion:

Caramelized onion and mushroom stuffing is a delicious and versatile side dish that can be enjoyed with a variety of main courses. It is a great way to use up leftover vegetables, and it is also a good source of dietary fiber. With a little planning and preparation, you can easily make this stuffing at home.
