Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a baking dish.

  2. In a large skillet, cook the country sausage over medium heat until browned and crumbled. Remove the sausage from the skillet and set it aside.

  3. In the same skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chopped celery, onion, and bell pepper. Sauté until the vegetables are tender, about 5-7 minutes.

  4. In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked sausage, sautéed vegetables, bread cubes, chopped pecans, dried sage, and dried thyme. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

  5. Slowly pour in the chicken broth while gently tossing the mixture to combine. The bread should be moistened but not soggy. Adjust the amount of broth as needed.

  6. Transfer the dressing mixture to the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly.

  7. Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake for 30 minutes. Then, remove the foil and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes or until the top is golden brown and crispy.

  8. Once done, remove the dressing from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before serving.

  9. Serve the Country Sausage Pecan Dressing warm alongside your favorite main course or as a stand-alone dish for a cozy family dinner.
