Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 pound ground sausage sweet, mild, or spicy
  • 1/2 cup diced shallots
  • 1 cup diced apple
  • 1 cup diced celery
  • 3 tablespoons salted butter
  • 2 cups chicken stock
  • 1 teaspoon fresh cracked black pepper
  • 1 bag (14 oz) herbed cubed stuffing

Method
 

  1. In a large oven-safe pan, cook the ground sausage over medium-high heat, breaking it up, until browned and cooked through.
  2. Add the shallots, apple, and celery. Stir until the shallots are soft and fragrant.
  3. Stir in the black pepper and butter until the butter melts.
  4. Pour in the chicken stock and bring to a boil.
  5. Add the stuffing cubes and stir to coat. Cover and let sit 2 to 3 minutes.
  6. If making ahead: let the stuffing cool, then cover and refrigerate. When ready to serve, bake at 375 F for 10 to 15 minutes until heated through with a crispy top. If serving right away: bake uncovered at 375 F for 10 minutes until the top is golden and crispy.

Notes

A pan that can double as a serving dish works best here. The recipe can be made ahead through step 5, then baked when ready to serve.
