Preparation
- Step 1
In a skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the onion, and saute until soft, about 5 minutes. Add the parsley, celery, salt, pepper, thyme, rosemary and sage, and cook for 5 minutes. Place the mixture in a large mixing bowl, add the cubed bread and chicken broth, and toss to combine.
- Step 2
When cool, stuff the turkey and bake. If you prefer, preheat the oven to 350 degrees, add ½ cup chicken broth to the stuffing and bake in a casserole for 40 minutes.
