Apple & Onion Stuffing
I got this recipe years ago from “30 Minute Meals”, Rachel Ray’s first cooking show she had on the Food Network. I have made this stuffing recipe many times for Thanksgiving dinner and everyone who has eaten it, loves it and wants the recipe! This stuffing (or dressing) is so good and it’s easy to make! Here is how to make it for your Thanksgiving dinner:
Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 Sticks Butter (softened)
- 2 Cups Chopped Celery
- 3 to 4 McIntosh Apples (or your choice of apples, skin on, cored, quartered, and chopped)
- 1 Large or 2 Medium Yellow Onions (chopped)
- Salt & Pepper (to taste)
- 2 Tablespoons Poultry Seasoning
- 8 Cups Cubed Stuffing Mix (such as Pepperidge Farm)
- 4 to 5 Cups Chicken Stock or Broth (as needed)
Directions:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
- Preheat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Melt 1 stick butter in the skillet. When the butter melts, add the celery, apples, and onions. Season with salt, pepper, and poultry seasoning. Cook until the vegetables and apples begin to soften, 5 to 6 minutes.
- Add the stuffing cubes to the pan and combine. Moisten the stuffing with the chicken stock or broth until all the bread is soft, but not wet. Let the stuffing cool either in the pan or in a bowl.
- Brush a casserole dish with 1/4 stick butter. Add the stuffing mixture to the dish and dot the top with the remaining 1/4 stick butter. Bake until set and crisp on top, 15 to 20 minutes. Serve hot or at room temperature.
