3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, cut into pieces, divided, plus more

2 tablespoons plus 1/4 cup olive oil
1/2 cup chopped roasted chestnuts
Kosher salt, freshly ground pepper

2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1/4 cup finely chopped fresh sage
1/2 cup very dry Sherry
2 large eggs
3 cups chicken stock or low-sodium chicken broth, divided

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°. Butter a shallow 3-quart baking dish and a sheet of foil. Place bread in a very large bowl.
  • Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add chestnuts, season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring often, until chestnuts are golden and crisp, about 5 minutes. Transfer to bowl with bread with a slotted spoon.
  • Heat remaining 1/4 cup oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Add sausage and cook, stirring occasionally and breaking into small pieces with a wooden spoon, until browned and cooked through, 8-10 minutes. Transfer to bowl with slotted spoon.
  • Add onions, celery, and chiles to skillet, season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring often, until onions are translucent and soft, 5-7 minutes. Add apple, garlic, and sage and cook, stirring occasionally, until onions are golden brown and apple is soft, about 5 minutes. Discard chiles. Add onion mixture to bowl.

  • Whisk eggs and 2 cups stock in a medium bowl; pour over bread mixture. Season with salt and pepper and toss, adding more stock 1/4-cupful at a time as needed (you may not use it all), until combined and bread is hydrated. Transfer to prepared dish and dot with remaining 1/4 cup butter.
  • Cover with buttered foil; bake until a paring knife inserted into the center comes out hot, 30-35 minutes. Increase oven temperature to 450°. Uncover and bake until top is golden brown and crisp, 20-25 minutes. Let sit 10 minutes before serving.
  • Do ahead: Stuffing can be assembled 1 day ahead. Cover and chill.

Tips:

  • Use stale sourdough bread for the stuffing. This will help it absorb the flavors of the other ingredients and prevent it from becoming soggy.
  • Toast the bread cubes before adding them to the stuffing. This will give them a nice crispy texture.
  • Use a variety of vegetables in the stuffing, such as celery, onions, carrots, and mushrooms. This will add flavor and texture.
  • Use a combination of fresh and dried herbs in the stuffing. This will give it a more complex flavor.
  • Don't overstuff the bread cubes. This will make the stuffing too dense.
  • Bake the stuffing at a high temperature for a short period of time. This will help it brown and crisp on the outside while remaining moist on the inside.

Conclusion:

Sourdough and sausage stuffing is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for Thanksgiving or any other special occasion. With a few simple tips, you can make sure that your stuffing is moist, flavorful, and perfectly browned.
