MARY ELIZABETH STRICKLAND'S SOUTHERN BELLE CORNBREAD DRESSING



Mary Elizabeth Strickland's Southern Belle Cornbread Dressing image

This is truly heavenly and one of my most requested dishes. This was my beloved Grandmother's dressing recipe. She was one of the world's best cooks. I always triple the recipe, taking a 4 quart dish to the family gathering so there is enough leftover for everyone to take some home, and keeping a 2 quart dish at home for our family.

4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
1 (16 ounce) package dry corn bread mix

4 tablespoons margarine
½ cup chopped onions
½ cup chopped celery
1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed cream of chicken soup
⅛ teaspoon garlic powder
2 teaspoons poultry seasoning
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
6 eggs

Blend with a potato masher until the mixture is the consistency of gelatin. Use more of the reserved broth as necessary to attain desired consistency. Transfer to a 9x13 inch baking dish.
  • Bake in the preheated oven 30 minutes, or until golden brown.

I grew up on mama's cornbread dressing. I have come across many cornbread dressing recipes; however, this is still the best. This stuffing has cubes of cornbread with the addition of onions, celery, eggs, and stock. It's the perfect Southern souffle!
