SIMPLE STOVE TOP STUFFING
I originally found this recipe in The Rookie Cook by Jean Paré and adjusted it to reduce the amount of butter and use chicken broth to soften the bread. It is a quick and easy side dish and a good excuse to use up the crusts of your bread loaves (I keep them in the freezer just to use in this dish). We use whole wheat bread and it is still great.

Steps:
- In a saucepan sauté onion and celery in butter on medium for about 5 minutes until onion is soft. Mix next four ingredients in small bowl and add to onion mixture. Heat and stir for about 1 minute until fragrant.
- Add bread cubes and stir. Then add chicken broth slowly while stirring. Bread should be moist but not mushy. Fluff with fork to serve.
- If you want to make Simple Baked Stuffing put stuffing into greased 2 quart casserole dish. Cover and bake at 325F for 30 minutes. Can buddy with chicken in oven.
STOVETOP STUFFING
Since the oven can be full during Thanksgiving or Christmas, I'm showing you how to make stuffing on the stovetop that's not just "as good" as the one you bake, it might even be better. Stuffing can be served immediately, or reheated once the oven is available.

Steps:
- Add dry bread cubes to a large mixing bowl and set aside.
- Melt 1 stick of butter in a large skillet set over medium-high heat. Add onions, celery, and salt, and sauté until the onions soften and turn translucent, about 5 minutes. Add sage, thyme, and broth to the pan. Stir together and wait for the mixture to come to a boil.
- Carefully remove from heat and pour over the bread cubes. Toss with a large spoon until the bread is evenly saturated.
- Let the mixture sit and cool in the bowl for about 15 minutes, tossing occasionally.
- Add black pepper, cayenne, parsley, rosemary, and beaten egg to the bowl and mix until evenly combined. Allow mixture to cool completely, tossing occasionally.
- Melt remaining 1/2 stick of butter in a large, nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the stuffing mixture, and pat down with a spatula. Cook until a golden brown crust forms, about 5 minutes, before turning the stuffing over, one spatula's worth at a time. Cover and cook about 5 minutes, before uncovering and tossing again. Continue cooking and tossing uncovered, until the desired amount of browning and crusting has occurred.
- Transfer to a casserole dish or serving plate.

THANKSGIVING STUFFING (CHEAT! USING STOVE TOP)
Last year I used my method of making turkey/chicken stuffing and used the pre-made packaged mix. My family never knew the difference. Easy and quick with that homemade taste.

Steps:
- Saute onions and celery in butter.
- Sprinkle with poultry seasoning.
- Set aside to cool slightly.
- Toss this mixture into your favorite dry stuffing mix.
- Heat broth and set aside.
- Read directions on your favorite stuffing mix box.
- Add enough hot water to the broth to make up the required liquid needed.
- (Omit butter the recipe calls for as it was already used to saute vegetables.)
- Pour over stuffing/vegetables mixture and mix well.
- Stuff your chicken or turkey. For a side dish place stuffing in a baking dish; cover and bake for 15 to 25 minutes at 325 degrees Fahrenheit.
Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients for the best results. Fresh herbs, vegetables, and broth will make a big difference in the flavor of your stuffing.
- Don't overcook the stuffing. It should be cooked through, but still moist and fluffy. Overcooked stuffing will be dry and crumbly.
- If you're using a store-bought stuffing mix, be sure to add some extra flavorings, such as herbs, spices, and vegetables. This will help to make the stuffing more flavorful and interesting.
- Serve the stuffing hot and fresh out of the oven. This is when it will be at its best.

Stove top stuffing is a classic Thanksgiving dish that is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a delicious and flavorful stuffing that will be the perfect addition to your holiday feast.
