I love this one (which is perfect for poultry)





- ricotta cheese (at least 300 gr for a small bird)


- chopped sundried tomatoes


- chopped black olives


- 2 tablespooons of grated parmesan cheese


- handful of thinly chopped parsley


- 1 egg


- handful breadcrumbs (at the end, to make sure there's no running juice)
TURKEY STUFFING





1 pkg Pepperidge Farm Herb Seasoned Stuffing (cubed)


4 cloves garlic, minced


3/4 cup onions, chopped


1 cup butter (2 sticks)


1 tablespoon olive oil


2 cups chicken broth


3 eggs


1/2 cup fresh parsley, chopped


1 teaspoon paprika


1 lb turkey giblets, finely chopped


1/2 cup celery, chopped


1 cup chopped mushrooms


1/2-1 teaspoon Bell Seasoning (or rubbed sage)


1/4 teaspoon each: salt, pepper, onion and garlic powder


a light sprinkling of cayenne pepper, if desired


1 teaspoon Knorr's powdered chicken bouillon or Minor's Chicken Soup Base





In a large saucepan, saut茅 chopped giblets and (de-stringed) celery in 1 tablespoon butter and 1 tablespoon olive oil; adding onions and after 2-3 minutes and minced garlic and parsley and mushrooms after 5 minutes. saut茅 1 minute more and add chicken broth. Dissolve chicken bouillon in broth. Add paprika, Bell Seasoning, salt, pepper, onion and garlic powder and cayenne pepper. Add remaining butter and stir over low heat for 10 minutes.


Stir package of stuffing cubes into broth quickly. Liquid will be absorbed. Turn off heat but leave pan on stove.





Allow to sit for 2-3 minutes, then stir in 1 egg at a time using a large wooden spoon, mixing quickly. Stir completely after adding each egg.





Stuffing should be somewhat sticky. If it's not holding together, add 1/4-1/2 cup more broth and mix in.





Line the bottom of a bread loaf pan with aluminum foil, leaving enough along the sides to cover the top of the pan when folded over. Spray foil inside the pan with oil or non-stick spray. Pat mixture into pan evenly, spreading with spatula or the back of a spoon. Do not press heavily. Shape into a bread loaf shape.





Bake in 350 degrees 45 minutes; uncover by removing foil from top and allow to bake another 10-15 minutes or until top is golden brown.





Cut into 2 inch slices for each serving. It's easier to remove from the pan if you use a pancake flipper to cut the slices.





Baste top with turkey juiced from cooked turkey or gravy before serving.





POULTRY STUFFING I





2 1/2 cups soft, fine breadcrumbs


1 c. poultry gizzards, finely chopped


1/2 cup butter


1/3 teaspoon salt


1/3 teaspoon pepper


1/2 scant teaspoon sage or bell seasoning


1/2 teaspoon paprika


1 large onion, chopped


2 cloves garlic, minced


2 tbsp. fresh parsley, finely minced


1 4 oz can mushrooms


1 egg, slightly beaten


1 chicken bouillon cube


1/4 cup water





In medium saucepan, saut茅 onion, gizzards, garlic, parsley and seasonings lightly in butter, approximately 2 minutes.


Do not brown.





Add egg and bouillon to water, mix well, and add to sauce pan. Stir to combine. Cover and steam over the lowest heat for 10 minutes.





This quantity is sufficient for one chicken. Double the recipe for a 10 lb. turkey.





If you stuff the poultry directly, you should do so immediately before cooking. If you refrigerate the stuffed bird, the center will not become cold enough to stop bacteria from developing, so it is not recommended that you stuff poultry before refrigerating. If you must have the stuffing ready to go in advance, then you can place it in a separate loaf pan and cover with foil, refrigerate, and cook separately.
I use a regular boxed stuffing and then add raisins and walnuts to mine,and when it asks for water in the recipe I use chicken stock,turns out perfect every time and is easy and not time consuming
Take the best stuffing recipe you like ,don't put it in the bird. Stuff your favourite squash or two ,however many you need and bake. The squash is then a side dish and very decorative addition to a great meal.
my grandma for one year tried to make a different type of stuffing adding raisins and apples making it fruity and yet healthy with seasoned herb bread crumbs and raisins made it great
Buy a bag of Aunt Jemima self rising (white) corn meal, and it has a delicious recipe for cornbread dressing/stuffing on the bag. I swear by this recipe when it comes to making dressing.
I have tried to make the perfect stuffing for years. My children say it turns out best when it's just plain old stove top stuffing.
