Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a baking dish with butter or cooking spray.

  2. In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and celery, and sauté until they are translucent and fragrant, about 5-7 minutes.

  3. Stir in the minced garlic, dried sage, thyme, and rosemary, and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until the herbs are aromatic.

  4. In a large mixing bowl, combine the diced bread cubes with the sautéed vegetable mixture. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

  5. Slowly pour the chicken or vegetable broth over the bread mixture, stirring gently to combine. The bread should be moist but not soggy; you may need to adjust the amount of broth depending on the texture of your bread.

  6. Transfer the stuffing mixture to the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly. Cover the dish with aluminum foil.

  7. Bake the stuffing in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, then remove the foil and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes until the top is golden brown and crispy.

  8. Once the stuffing is done, garnish with freshly chopped parsley for a pop of color and extra freshness.

  9. Serve warm alongside your favorite main dish and enjoy the classic flavors of this timeless recipe with your loved ones.
