Categories     side-dish

Time 1h45m

Yield 8 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 large or 2 small focaccias (about 1 pound)
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 small yellow onion, chopped
4 stalks celery, chopped
3 sprigs thyme, leaves stripped
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 large Granny Smith apples, chopped
1 cup shelled and roasted chestnuts, chopped
3 to 4 cups chicken stock

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Cut the focaccia into small cubes and spread them out on a cookie sheet. Bake until dry and crunchy, 20 to 30 minutes.
  • In a thick-bottomed pot, heat the butter and oil over medium low. Add the onions, celery and thyme; sweat the vegetables for 10 to 12 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Turn the heat up to medium high and add the apples. Cook until the apples start to brown, 8 minutes.
  • Turn off the heat and add the chestnuts and bread; toss to mix.
  • Pour in the chicken stock, 1 cup at a time, mixing well between additions -- you want the mixture moist, not soaking wet.
  • Transfer the stuffing to a casserole dish, cover with foil and bake for 45 minutes. Uncover and bake for another 15 to 20 minutes, until golden.
  • Serve warm.
