Classic Thanksgiving Dressing With Parsley, Sage and Thyme recipe

10 servings

Ingredients:

1 (1 pound) loaf crusty Italian or French bread, cut into 1/2-inch cubes or, if drying and toasting bread is too much trouble, buy unflavored croutons or bread cubes

4 tablespoons butter

2 onions, diced

2 celery stalks, diced

1/4 cup minced fresh parsley leaves

1 teaspoon dried sage, rubbed between fingers

1 teaspoon dried thyme leaves

3/4 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper

2 cups low-sodium chicken broth

2 large eggs

Instructions:

Spread bread cubes in a single layer on two large sheet pans and let dry for a few hours or overnight.

Adjust oven racks to lower- and upper-middle positions.

Heat oven to 400 degrees.

Bake bread until golden, 12 to 15 minutes.

Reduce heat to 350 degrees.

Meanwhile, heat butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

Add onions and celery; saute until soft, 8 to 10 minutes.

In a large bowl, mix bread, vegetables and remaining ingredients.

Turn into a greased 3-quart baking dish.

Cover with foil and bake until steamy, 30 minutes.

Remove foil; bake until crusty, 10 minutes longer.

Serve immediately.
