Ingredients

4 cups cubed focaccia bread
¼ cup butter
1 cup chopped onion
1 cup chopped celery
½ teaspoon dried rosemary, crushed
½ teaspoon dried thyme
¼ teaspoon salt
2 pinches ground black pepper
1 ¼ cups chicken broth, or more to taste

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a cookie sheet and a 2-quart casserole dish.
Place cubed focaccia on the prepared cookie sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven until light golden brown, 12 to 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add onion, celery, rosemary, thyme, salt, and pepper; saute until onion is translucent, 5 to 7 minutes.
Remove focaccia from the oven and transfer to the prepared casserole dish. Pour onion mixture over top and mix to lightly combine. Gently stir in 1 1/4 cups chicken broth, or up to 1/4 cup more depending on how crispy or wet you prefer your stuffing.
Return to the oven and bake until golden brown, 35 to 40 minutes, stirring 1 to 2 times during baking.
