  • Total Time: 1 hour 5 minutes
  • Yield: 8 servings

Ingredients

– 1 rustic Italian bread loaf (about 12 cups cubed)

– 1 pound ground pork sausage

– 1/2 cup butter

– 1 large sweet onion, peeled and chopped

– 1 1/2 cups celery, chopped

– 1 pound button mushrooms, quartered or chopped

– 1/4 cup parsley, chopped

– 2 tablespoons fresh sage, chopped

– 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped

– 1 tablespoon fresh thyme, chopped

– 1 1/2 cups chicken broth

– 2 large eggs

– 3 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese

– Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

1-First, cut the bread into 3/4-inch cubes and let it dry for at least one hour or up to several days to get that perfect texture.

2-Then, preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and grease a baking dish to avoid any sticking issues.

3-In a large sauté pan over medium heat, melt the butter and cook the ground pork sausage, breaking it into small pieces until it’s browned.

4-Next, add the chopped onions and celery, cooking them for a few minutes until they soften.

5-Stir in the quartered or chopped button mushrooms and sauté until the vegetables are very soft and the sausage is fully cooked.

6-Once that’s done, mix in the fresh herbs like parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme, then remove the pan from the heat.

7-In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and chicken broth together, seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.

8-Pour this mixture into the sausage and vegetable mix, stirring gently to combine.

9-Fold in the bread cubes, making sure they’re evenly coated for the best results.

10-Transfer the whole mixture into your prepared baking dish and sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese on top for a nice golden finish.

11-Bake it for 45 minutes or until it’s puffed and golden in the center.

12-Let it cool a bit before serving warm, and you’ll have a dish that’s full of flavor and easy to share.

Notes

🥖 Use a dense, crusty bread like Italian country bread or ciabatta for best results.
⏳ Bread should dry out before using to hold shape and texture; this can be done several days ahead.
🌿 Fresh herbs are recommended for special occasions to boost flavor, though dried herbs can be used for everyday cooking.
