1/4 cup Herb Butter, recipe follows
2 yellow onions, finely diced
2 celery stalks, finely diced
6 cups cubed cornbread (store-bought or homemade)
3/4 cup low-sodium chicken broth
1/2 cup whole milk
1 large egg, lightly beaten
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
3 tablespoons minced fresh sage
2 tablespoons minced fresh flat-leaf parsley
2 tablespoons minced fresh thyme
1 teaspoon minced fresh rosemary
2 tablespoons kosher salt
2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

Melt the Herb Butter in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and celery and saute until translucent, stirring occasionally, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool.
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
In a large bowl, combine the cooked onions and celery with the cornbread, chicken broth, milk, egg, salt and pepper. Mix well to combine. Refrigerate until ready to bake.
Transfer the stuffing mixture to a greased 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Bake until golden brown, 35 to 40 minutes.
Combine the butter, sage, parsley, thyme, rosemary, salt and pepper in a small mixing bowl. Mix to blend.
