Time 50m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 medium green apple, cored and diced into 1-inch cubes
1 medium red apple, cored and diced into 1-inch cubes
1 medium onion, diced into 1/2-inch cubes
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon unsalted butter, plus 2 tablespoons cubed
1/4 cup dry white wine
1 (6-ounce) bag dried cranberries
1/2 tablespoon salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 pound sweet Italian turkey sausage, meat removed from casing
8 ounce jar steamed whole chestnuts, roughly chopped
1/2 pound day old cornbread or bread, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
Pinch red pepper flakes
1 cup canned chicken stock
1 cup freshly grated Parmesan

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
  • In a medium saute pan add the apples, onion, 1 tablespoon oil and butter cook over a medium low heat for 10 minutes to soften. Add the wine, cranberries, and salt and pepper, simmer for about 5 minutes. Take off the heat and allow the mixture to cool.
  • In a large saute pan over medium high heat, add 1 tablespoon olive oil and turkey sausage meat and break up with a wooden spoon and cook until browned and cooked through, approximately 8 to 10 minutes.
  • In a medium bowl toss together the fruit and onion mixture, the sausage, the chestnuts, the cornbread and red pepper flakes. Combine all the ingredients.
  • Add the chicken stock, and 3/4 cup of the Parmesan. Gently place into an 8 1/2 by 8 1/2- inch glass Pyrex baking dish and top with the remaining Parmesan. Dot with butter. Place in middle rack and bake until top is golden brown, 45 minutes to 1 hour.

This stuffing was a bit too dry for my taste. I think I would add more broth or butter next time.

Overall, this stuffing was pretty good. It had a nice flavor and the chestnuts were a nice addition. However, I found the texture to be a bit too mushy for my taste.

Overall, this stuffing was pretty good. The flavor was nice and the chestnuts were a nice addition. However, I found the texture to be a bit too mushy for my taste. I think I would try using a different type of bread next time.

This stuffing was a bit too dry for my taste. I think I would add more broth or butter next time. The flavor was good, but the texture was just a bit off.

Not a fan of chestnuts, but this stuffing was still very good. The turkey sausage and bread crumbs gave it a nice savory flavor, and the celery and onion added a nice crunch. Will definitely make this again, but without the chestnuts.
