Time 1h20m

Yield 6 servings

2 tablespoons butter
2 pounds ground turkey, at room temperature and patted dry
About 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 ribs celery, chopped
1 carrot, chopped
1 onion, chopped
1 small potato, peeled and chopped
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh thyme
2 tablespoons flour
2 to 2 1/2 cups turkey or chicken stock
1/2 cup organic frozen peas
6 tablespoons butter, cut into pieces
3 to 4 ribs celery with leafy tops, chopped
2 small apples, such as Macintosh or Honeycrisp, chopped
1 large fresh bay leaf
1 onion, chopped
About 1 tablespoon poultry seasoning, such as Rachael Ray Perfect Poultry Seasoning
Salt and freshly ground black pepper (if not included in the poultry seasoning blend)
Salt and freshly ground black pepper (if not included in the poultry seasoning blend)
1 bag traditional seasoned stuffing mix, such as Pepperidge Farm, or 5 cups cubed stale bread
About 3 cups turkey or chicken stock
Butter, for dotting casserole

Steps:

  • For the turkey filling: Heat the EVOO in a large, deep skillet over medium-high heat and melt in the butter. Add the turkey and cook, crumbling the meat, until browned. Season with the Worcestershire and some salt and pepper. Add the celery, carrots, onions, potatoes and thyme and cook, partially covered, to soften the vegetables, 8 to 10 minutes. Stir in the flour and cook for 1 minute; add the stock and cook to thicken. Stir in the peas until warmed through. Transfer the mixture to a casserole dish.
  • For the stuffing: Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the butter. When melted, add the celery, apples, bay leaf and onions. Add the poultry seasoning and salt and pepper if using and cook until tender, 12 to 15 minutes. Add the stuffing mix and moisten with the stock. Arrange the stuffing on top of the turkey filling and dot with butter.
  • Cool and store for a make-ahead meal, or bake to serve immediately. If baking immediately, bake at 375 degrees F until brown, bubbly and crisp on top, 15 to 20 minutes. If baking later, bring to room temperature and bake at 375 degrees F until brown, bubbly and crisp on top, 40 to 45 minutes.

ITALIAN SPINACH STUFFING



Italian Spinach Stuffing image

This is an Italian-American turkey stuffing that was invented in New Jersey by Pietronilla Conte, who emigrated from the Italian region of Molise in the early 20th century. Ms. Conte's granddaughter Lisa shared the recipe (which her mother, Carmela, also prepares) with us. "She must have used a stuffing that she knew in Italy," Lisa Conte said of her grandmother. "And she just looked at the turkey as a larger thing to stuff." The gizzards give the stuffing its depth of flavor (like giblet gravy), but you could leave them out, or substitute an equal amount of livers, or 6 ounces of pancetta or bacon.

Categories     stuffing and dressing, side dish

Time 1h45m

Yield 12 to 14 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

5 tablespoons olive oil
2 cups chopped sweet onion (about 1 large onion)
8 cloves garlic, minced
4 (10-ounce) boxes frozen chopped spinach, thawed, drained and squeezed dry
2 cups chopped white mushrooms caps
Salt and black pepper
2 pounds well-trimmed chicken or turkey gizzards
4 large eggs
1 1/2 cups grated Parmigiano-Reggiano
1 cup unseasoned bread crumbs
1/2 cup chopped parsley

Steps:

  • Heat 3 tablespoons olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add onions and sauté, stirring, until translucent, about 5 minutes. Reduce heat to medium and add garlic, spinach and mushrooms and cook, stirring often, until well mixed and heated through, about 5 minutes. Season mixture to taste with salt and pepper; set aside.
  • Finely mince chicken gizzards. (You can do this by hand or in a food processor, but be careful not to overprocess.) Season gizzards all over with salt. Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add gizzards and sauté, stirring often, until cooked through, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain off any drippings, then stir gizzards into spinach mixture. Let cool to room temperature.
  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. When spinach mixture is cool, add eggs, cheese, bread crumbs and parsley and stir until well combined. Transfer stuffing to a 3-quart casserole dish and bake, covered, 1 hour.

  • Use Fresh Ingredients: Fresh ingredients will give your casserole the best flavor. If possible, use organic vegetables and free-range turkey.

  • Use a Variety of Vegetables: Don't just use spinach in your casserole. Add other vegetables like onions, celery, carrots, and mushrooms for a more flavorful dish.
  • Use a Good Quality Broth: The broth you use will make a big difference in the flavor of your casserole. Use a homemade broth or a high-quality store-bought broth.
  • Season to Taste: Don't be afraid to season your casserole to taste. Add salt, pepper, and other herbs and spices as desired.
  • Let the Casserole Rest: Once the casserole is cooked, let it rest for 10-15 minutes before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld and the casserole to set.
