  • 1/2 tablespoon poultry seasoning

Equipment

Instructions
 

  • In a large skillet over medium heat melt the butter. Sauté the onion and celery for 4-5 minutes until the onion is translucent. Add the garlic and sauté 30 seconds until fragrant.
  • Stir in the poultry seasoning, sage, and bouillon cube. Remove the skillet from the heat and set aside.
  • Add the cornbread cubes to a large mixing bowl. Allow the sautéed vegetables to cool a few minutes, then add it to the bowl. Stir in the chicken stock and the beaten eggs.
  • After stirring allow it to sit for 15 minutes in the fridge to soak up the liquid. During this rest period, preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Transfer to a buttered 7x11 baking dish. Bake for 30 minutes.
  • Allow the dressing to sit 10 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • Recipe I used for the cornbread: https://www.maebells.com/cornbread-recipe/
  • If you don't have an 11x7 casserole dish, the mixture should fit in a 9x9 square pan or 10-inch round pan. The cooking time may slightly differ.
