CELERY HERB STUFFING AND SAVORY CHICKEN



Celery Herb Stuffing and Savory Chicken image

I taught my children this recipe by singing along to Scarborough Fair by Simon and Garfunkel: Parsley, Sage, Rosemary and Thyme, great herb stuffing seasonings. If you can get savory from the Atlantic provinces to green your chicken; it would be the best. My father was a Newfoundlander and swore by their savory.

Tips:

  • Use fresh herbs for the best flavor. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but use half the amount called for in the recipe.
  • Don't overstuff the chicken or turkey. This will make the dressing too dense and prevent it from cooking evenly.
  • If you're making dressing ahead of time, store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. When you're ready to cook it, let it come to room temperature for 30 minutes before baking.
  • You can also freeze dressing for up to 3 months. To freeze, place the dressing in a freezer-safe bag or container. When you're ready to cook it, thaw it in the refrigerator overnight or at room temperature for several hours.
  • Serve dressing hot or at room temperature. It's delicious either way!
