Equipment
- Large Skillet
Ingredients
- ½ lb. ground Italian sausage mild or spicy
- 2 Tablespoons butter
- ½ cup onion chopped
- ½ cup carrot chopped
- ½ cup celery chopped
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 ½ cups chicken broth
- 6 ounce box of store-bought stuffing mix I use Stove Top or Pepperidge Farm
Instructions
- In a large skillet on medium heat, sauté Italian sausage until browned.
- To the skillet add butter, chopped vegetables, garlic, and dried herbs. Cook for 5 minutes stirring occasionally until vegetables have softened.
- Add chicken broth to the skillet and bring to a boil.
- Turn off heat and gently stir in stuffing mix. Remove from heat and cover skillet with a lid for 5 minutes. Remove lid and fluff with a fork.
Notes
- I don't add any salt because the sausage, stuffing mix, and chicken broth already contain sodium. Season to taste based on your preference.
- If you're cooking for a larger crowd, use the ‘2x’ or ‘3x’ on the recipe card to multiply. I recommend making it in a Dutch oven or 2 large skillets if you plan to double or triple the recipe.
