Ingredients
  • 6 cups of cubed white or wheat bread
  • 1 cornbread recipe (~6 cups), I use my Buttermilk Cornbread Recipe
  • 1½ cup onion, diced
  • 1½ cup celery, chopped
  • 5-6 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 pinches of Coarse sea Salt
  • ½ tsp fresh ground pepper
  • 4 Tbsp butter (can decrease if not Thanksgiving ;) )
  • 8-9 cups of chicken broth (I know its a lot, but it makes a ton!)
  • ½ cup chopped fresh parsley
  • 2 Tbsp fresh rosemary
  • 1 Tbsp fresh thyme
  • 1 Tbsp dried Sage
Instructions
  1. Melt butter in large dutch oven, add onion, celery, salt and pepper . Saute for 5 mins or so. Add minced garlic, saute for additional 5-10min on low so not to scorch the garlic.
  2. Add 4 cups of chicken broth and herbs to the onion mixture and stir, make sure to scarp of the things that are sticking to the bottom of the pan, they are very flavorful!
  3. In a large mixing bowl add the cubed cornbread and 4 cups of the cubed white bread. Stir the onion/herb mixture into the bread. This will cause the bread to shrink so you can add the additional 2 cups of cubed bread at this point if needed.
  4. Pour the bread mixture into a prepared 9x13 pan. Dressing will be dry at this point, so add additional 4-5cups of chicken broth to make very moist.
  5. Bake in 350degree oven for 30-40minutes until all the extra liquid is absorbed and the sides are browning and pulling away from the sides a bit.
  6. Enjoy!
