Sausage-And-Cornbread Dressing image

I'm posting this recipe at my son, James', request. He said that he could eat this three times a day! I think the original recipe was from " Southern Living" magazine, many years ago, but I've modified it to suit our tastes.. This recipe can be made a day in advance, refrigerated until it's time to be heated ( allow for additional cooking time ), and doubles well.This has been a staple at our Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners for many years years.

Categories     Breads

Time 1h50m

Yield 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 lb mild bulk pork sausage (I usually use "original recipe" Owen's or Jimmy Dean's sausage)
2 tablespoons butter
2 cups diced onions (about 2 large)
2 cups diced celery (include some leaves from the inner celery stalks)
1/2 bunch parsley, leaves chopped (about 1 c.)
2 eggs, lightly beaten
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can chicken broth
1 (16 ounce) package plain cornbread stuffing mix (I use the bagged Pepperidge Farms brand)
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Brown the sausage meat in a large skillet over medium heat, breaking meat up into small pieces as it cooks.
  • Drain cooked sausage (I drain it in a colander and then run hot water over the meat to remove as much fat as possible) and remove meat to a large bowl.
  • Add the butter to the skillet and melt over medium heat.
  • Add onions and celery to skillet and cook, covered, until onions and celery are cooked through, stirring occasionally.
  • Combine cooked vegetables, sausage,parsley,stuffing mix,and spices in the large bowl, stir in the beaten eggs and chicken broth and mix well.
  • Spray a casserole dish with cooking spray and fill with dressing mixture.
  • Cover and bake for one hour in a preheated 350 degree oven.
  • Remove cover and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, to lightly brown top of dressing.
  • A cake tester or knife inserted should come out"clean" when the dressing is done.

This dressing was a bit dry for my taste. I think I would add more broth next time.
