Thanksgiving stuffing in less than an hour? Believe it. The Parmesan in this Italian-inspired version makes it extra creamy and flavorful. Cooking and baking the stuffing in the same skillet saves time and cuts down on dishes.

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 crusty white demi baguettes (about 10 1/2 ounces), cut into 3/4" cubes (about 8 cups cubes)
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
1/2 pound hot or sweet Italian sausage, casings removed
1 medium onion, chopped
8 ounces wild mushrooms, cut into large pieces
2 tablespoons finely chopped sage
1 cup dry white wine
2 large eggs
1 1/4 cups low-sodium chicken broth
1 1/2 ounces finely grated Parmesan or Pecorino (about 1/2 cup)
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 1/4 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425°F. Toast bread on a rimmed baking sheet until dry, about 10 minutes. Let cool. Reduce oven temperature to 375°F.
  • Meanwhile, heat 1 Tbsp. oil in a 12" cast-iron skillet over medium-high. Add sausage and cook, breaking into pieces with a spatula, until browned, about 7 minutes. Add onion, mushrooms, and sage and cook, stirring occasionally, until well browned, 8-10 minutes. Add wine and cook, stirring occasionally, until reduced by half. Let cool slightly.
  • Whisk eggs, broth, cheese, mustard, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Add sausage mixture, reserving skillet, and bread and toss to combine. Let sit 5 minutes, toss again, then pack back into skillet.
  • Bake stuffing until lightly browned on top and cooked through, about 20 minutes.

This stuffing is a great way to use up leftover chicken or turkey.

I'm not a big fan of Italian sausage, so I used ground turkey instead. It was still very good.

I had a hard time finding wild mushrooms, so I used cremini mushrooms instead. They worked just fine.

This stuffing was a bit too mushy for my taste. I think I'll cook it for a shorter amount of time next time.

I found the flavors in this stuffing to be a bit bland. I think I'll add some more herbs and spices next time.

This stuffing is a bit dry for my taste. I think I'll add some more broth next time.

This stuffing is a great way to use up leftover bread. It's also a great way to get your kids to eat vegetables.

I made this stuffing for a potluck and it was a huge success. Everyone raved about the flavor and the texture. I will definitely be making this again.

This stuffing was a hit at our Thanksgiving dinner! I loved the combination of Italian sausage, wild mushrooms, and the slightly crispy edges from cooking it in the skillet. It was a nice change from the traditional stuffing we usually make.
