Ingredients:
- 7 tbsp butter
- 5 small onions, finely chopped
- 3/4 cup celery, diced
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp pepper
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1 chicken bouillon cube
- 1 tsp dried sage
- 1 lb sausage links, cut into pieces
- 6 cups bread crumbs
Instructions:
-
Prepare Ingredients: Start by combining the breadcrumbs, salt, pepper, and dried sage in a mixing bowl. Set aside.
-
-
Saute Onions and Celery: In a large frying pan, melt 3 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and diced celery, and sauté until they turn tender and translucent. This should take about 5-7 minutes. Once done, remove the sautéed onions and celery from the pan and set aside.
-
Brown Sausage: In the same pan, add the remaining butter and brown the cut sausage links until they are cooked through and nicely browned on all sides. This should take about 5 minutes. Once cooked, remove the sausage pieces from the pan and set aside.
-
Prepare Broth: Still using the same pan, pour in the chicken broth and add the chicken bouillon cube. Stir until the bouillon cube is dissolved and the broth is heated through.
-
Combine Ingredients: Return the sautéed onions and celery back to the pan with the broth. Mix well until everything is heated through.
-
Toss Gently: Add the cooked sausage pieces to the pan with the broth and vegetables. Then, slowly pour the breadcrumb mixture over the sausage and vegetable mixture, tossing gently to combine all the ingredients evenly.
-
Serve: Once everything is well combined and heated through, transfer the Osage Sausage Stuffing to a serving dish. Serve warm alongside your favorite Thanksgiving turkey or as a comforting side dish for any meal.
Additional Tips:
- For added flavor and texture, you can include diced, cooked poultry giblets instead of sausage.
- To adjust the seasoning, taste the stuffing before serving and add more salt and pepper if needed.
- This stuffing can be prepared in advance and stored in the refrigerator. Simply reheat it in the oven before serving.
