From the folks at the Johnsonsville Sausage company, a highly seasoned unstuffed-stuffing. It's really a one dish meal. The original recipe called for adding a small can (2 1/4 oz) of chopped black olives but I omitted that as we don't care for the taste. Feel free to add it back. Ingredients:
1/2 lb mild italian ground sausage |
1/4 cup butter |
1 cup chopped celery |
1/2 medium onion, chopped |
1/4 cup green bell pepper, chopped |
2 garlic cloves, minced |
6 cups herb seasoned bread stuffing mix (cube type) |
1/4 cup parmesan cheese |
1/2 teaspoon black pepper |
2 cups chicken broth |
1 egg, lightly beaten |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 325ºF.
2. Butter a 2 quart baking dish.
3. In a large skillet, cook sausage over medium heat until no longer pink; drain & remove from skillet. Set aside.
4. Pour any grease from skillet & melt butter.
5. Add celery & onion and saute until slightly tender, 2-3 minutes. Stir in the green pepper & garlic and continue to saute until all veggies are tender.
6. In a large bowl, combine the stuffing, sausage, celery mixture, cheese & pepper. Add broth and egg and toss to combine.
7. Spoon into prepared dish, cover and bake for 35 minutes.
8. Uncover and bake an additional 10-15 minutes or until lightly browned.
