CHESTNUT AND CRANBERRY STUFFING / DRESSING
This can be prepared to stuff or made in a casserole. Makes enough to stuff a 12- to 14-pound turkey with extra to bake on the side. Or make in mini muffin pan and bake for 15-18 minutes making a nice appetizer. Or regular sized muffin pan for 20 minutes as a dressing side.

CHESTNUT STUFFING
Studded with meaty chestnuts and fragrant with parsley and sage, this stuffing is equally good cooked inside or outside the turkey (try our Classic Brined and Roasted Turkey recipe). You will need to dry the bread cubes overnight; transfer them to resealable plastic bags until you're ready to make the stuffing, up to 1 day more.

Steps:
- Spread bread cubes in single layers on baking sheets. Let dry at room temperature, uncovered, overnight.
- Bring a medium saucepan of water to a boil. Add chestnuts; cook until soft, about 20 minutes. Drain; let cool slightly. Peel and quarter chestnuts; set aside. Peeled chestnuts can be refrigerated in an airtight container 2 to 3 days.
- Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onions and celery; cook, stirring, until onions are translucent, about 10 minutes. Add sage; cook 3 minutes. Stir in 1/2 cup stock; cook until reduced by half, about 5 minutes.
- Transfer onion mixture to a large bowl. Add remaining 4 1/2 cups stock, the chestnuts, bread, salt, and parsley; season with pepper. Toss to combine. If not stuffing turkey, transfer to a buttered 17-by-12-inch baking dish. Cover; bake at 350 degrees for 25 minutes. Uncover; bake until hot and golden brown, 30 minutes more.
CHESTNUT DRESSING
I enjoyed this stuffing when I spent my first Thanksgiving with my husband, Mike. It's a family recipe his mother has been making for years. Italian seasoning and chestnuts add flavor and texture. -Sharon Brunner, Mohnton, Pennsylvania
