Ingredients

1/2 pound best-quality sausage meat
1/2 cup finely chopped onion
2 cups diced apple
1/2 cup diced celery
1 teaspoon finely chopped garlic
1 tablespoon chopped fresh sage, or 2 teaspoons dried
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
2 cups coarse fresh bread crumbs
1/2 cup fresh or canned chicken broth
1 egg, beaten
1/4 cup chopped parsley
1 tablespoon butter

Steps:

Heat a nonstick skillet and add the sausage meat, stirring with a wooden spatula to break it up. Cook until lightly browned. Add the onion, apple, celery, garlic, sage, salt and pepper. Cook until vegetables are wilted, about 5 minutes.
Transfer the mixture to a mixing bowl. Add the bread crumbs, broth, egg, parsley, salt and pepper. Blend well, checking the seasonings.
Butter a baking dish and put the dressing in it. Bake, uncovered, for 30 minutes in the oven with the turkey. Serve with the turkey.
