Chestnut and sausage stuffing
Chatelaine Triple Tested

This sweet and savoury stuffing pairs perfectly with turkey. You can make it in advance of the big meal—just reheat in a 325F oven for 25 to 30 min, stirring halfway through, before serving. 

Ingredients

  • 675 g unsliced loaf white bread, cut into 1-in. cubes

  • 1 tbsp canola oil

  • 375-g maple breakfast sausages, casings removed

  • 2 small onions, finely chopped

  • 3 celery stalks, finely chopped, about 1 1/2 cups

  • 1/4 cup butter

  • 1/2 tsp salt

  • 3 100-g pkgs peeled and roasted chestnuts

  • 1 cup no-salt chicken broth

Instructions

  • POSITION oven racks in top and bottom thirds of oven. Preheat to 350F. Arrange bread cubes in 1 layer on 2 large baking sheets. Toast in top and bottom thirds of oven, switching sheets halfway through and stirring occasionally, until golden and dry, 15 to 18 min. Transfer to a large bowl. Reduce heat to 325F.

  • HEAT a large pot over medium-high. Add oil, then sausage meat. Using a wooden spoon, break up meat until crumbly. Cook, stirring often, until no pink remains, 3 to 5 min. Reduce heat to medium. Add onions, celery, butter and salt. Cook, uncovered, stirring often, until onion is soft, about 5 min. Season with fresh pepper. Stir in toasted bread and chestnuts. Drizzle with broth, stirring to combine. Transfer to a large baking dish.

  • BAKE in bottom third of oven until hot, about 30 min.
