Time 2h

Yield 8-10

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted, plus more for buttering the baking dish
One 1-pound loaf sliced white sandwich bread
1 pound sweet Italian sausage, casings removed
1/2 cup dried cranberries
2 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves, roughly chopped
1 large apple, such as Golden Delicious, peeled, cored and coarsely chopped
1 onion, chopped
2 stalks celery with leaves, chopped
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 cups low-sodium chicken broth
1/4 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley, plus more for garnish
1 large egg, lightly beaten

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Butter a shallow 3-quart baking dish. Cut or tear the bread into bite-size pieces. Divide between 2 rimmed baking sheets and spread into a single layer. Bake until slightly dry and crisp, 15 to 20 minutes. Cool completely.
  • Meanwhile, cook the sausage in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, breaking up the meat into small pieces with a wooden spoon until browned and cooked through, about 5 minutes Transfer the sausage to a plate using a slotted spoon. Add the cranberries, thyme, apple, onion, celery, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper to the drippings in the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft, about 5 minutes. Add the broth and parsley and bring to a boil. Remove from the heat and pour into a large bowl.
  • Add the toasted bread to the onion mixture and toss until evenly moistened. Stir in the egg and cooked sausage. Transfer to the prepared baking dish and evenly spread without packing the stuffing down too much. Bake until the top is crusty, about 40 minutes. Drizzle the melted butter over the top and continue to bake until the top is crisp and golden, about 20 minutes more. Sprinkle the top with some chopped parsley.

6 cups coarsely chopped leeks, (about 12)
4 apples, peeled, cored and chopped
1 pound breakfast sausage or Italian sausage, casings removed

2 teaspoons chopped fresh rosemary leaves, (about 4 sprigs)
2 teaspoons chopped fresh sage leaves, (about 6 leaves)
2 teaspoons chopped fresh parsley leaves, (about 4 to 6 sprigs)
2 cups dried cranberries

Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Melt the butter in a large skillet and saute the onions, celery, leeks, apples, and sausage, breaking up the sausage as you cook. After about 10 minutes, add the poultry seasoning, fresh herbs and dried cranberries. Add the dried stuffing mix and moisten with the vegetable stock.

  • Place into a buttered casserole dish and bake for 45 minutes.

AWESOME SAUSAGE, APPLE AND CRANBERRY STUFFING



Awesome Sausage, Apple and Cranberry Stuffing image

This Thanksgiving stuffing is fantastic! It is very flavorful and fresh-tasting. This recipe will stuff a 10-pound turkey (which serves six) plus extra. I replaced the usual pork sausage with much healthier turkey sausage. Other dried fruits may also be used in place of cranberries.

Categories     side dish

Time 45m

Yield About 12 cups, enough to stuff a 12- to 14-pound turkey

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 cup dried cranberries
1/4 cup brandy
4 pounds ground pork (or substitute ground turkey)
5 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt, more to taste
5 1/2 teaspoons ground black pepper
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
3 garlic cloves, finely chopped
2 1/2 teaspoons grated ginger root
6 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
4 medium leeks, white and light-green part only, finely chopped
2 celery stalks, sliced
2 bay leaves
2 1/2 teaspoons whole coriander seed
4 medium apples, peeled, cored and cut into 1/2-inch chunks
2 tablespoons cider vinegar

Steps:

  • In a small pot, bring cranberries, brandy and 3 tablespoons water to a simmer. Turn off heat and let stand until ready to use.
  • In a large bowl, using your hands, mash and squeeze together the pork, 5 teaspoons each of salt and pepper, the cinnamon and cloves. Make sure spices are evenly distributed. In a small bowl, mix together the garlic and ginger root.
  • In a very large skillet, heat 3 tablespoons oil over medium-high heat. Add leeks, celery, bay leaves and coriander; cook, stirring, until vegetables are almost softened, about 4 minutes. Stir in the apples and remaining 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Cook 2 minutes, reduce heat to medium, cover and cook until just tender, about 3 minutes more. Transfer mixture to a bowl. Add vinegar to cranberry mixture.
  • Add another tablespoon oil to same skillet over medium-high heat. Add a third of the garlic-ginger mixture and cook, stirring, for 30 seconds. Add a third of the pork and brown, breaking up with a fork, until cooked through, about 5 minutes. Add a third of the cranberries and their liquid; cook, scraping up any browned bits from bottom of pan, until most liquid has evaporated. Spoon pork into bowl with apple mixture; repeat two more times with remaining ingredients. Toss everything together; taste and add more salt if necessary.
