Basic Thanksgiving Dressing
- 1 loaf Cornbread (see My Skillet Cornbread Recipe)
- 1 loaf Italian Bread, Such As Ciabatta
- 1 loaf French Bread
- 1 whole Large Onion Or 2 Medium Onions, Diced
- 5 stalks Celery, Diced
- 1/2 bunches Parsley, Chopped
- 1/2 cups (1 Stick) Butter
- 6 cups Low-sodium Chicken Broth, More If Needed For Moisture
- 1/2 teaspoons Dried Basil
- 1/2 teaspoons Ground Thyme
- 1 Tablespoon Fresh Rosemary, Finely Minced
- Salt And Pepper
- Cut all the bread into 1-inch cubes and lay them out on sheet pans. Cover with a dish towel and let them dry out for 24-48 hours until they're dry and crisp.
- Melt the butter in a large skillet. Add the onions and celery and cook for 3-4 minutes. Add the broth, parsley, rosemary, basil, thyme, salt, and pepper and stir.
- Put all the bread cubes in a large bowl and slowly ladle in the broth mixture, tossing as you go until the dressing has the moisture level you want. Taste and add more seasonings as needed.
- Pour the dressing into a large casserole pan and/or the turkey cavity. Bake the casserole for 20 to 30 minutes at 375 degrees until golden and crisp on top. Serve piping hot with a turkey and gravy!
