Total Time:
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 12 ounces andouille sausage, sliced
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus more for the baking dish and foil
- 1 large loaf Italian bread (about 1 pound), cut into 3⁄4-inch pieces (about 16 cups)
- 2 medium onions, chopped
- 4 celery stalks, thinly sliced
- 2 red bell peppers, chopped
- kosher salt and black pepper
- 1/2 cup dry white wine
- 2 1/2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
- 2 large eggs, beaten
- 3 tablespoons chopped fresh oregano
Directions
- Heat oven to 375° F. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the sausage until browned, turning occasionally, 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer to a plate and reserve the skillet.
- Butter a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Divide the bread between 2 rimmed baking sheets and bake until dry and crisp, 10 to 12 minutes.
- Meanwhile, wipe out the skillet and melt the butter over medium heat. Add the onions, celery, bell peppers, 1 teaspoon salt, and ¼ teaspoon black pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until very tender and beginning to brown, 10 to 12 minutes. Add the wine and cook until evaporated, 2 to 4 minutes; transfer to a large bowl and let cool for 10 minutes.
- Add the bread, broth, eggs, sausage, oregano, and ½ teaspoon salt to the vegetables and toss to combine. Transfer to the prepared baking dish. Cover with buttered foil and bake for 20 minutes. Uncover and bake until browned, 20 to 30 minutes more.

Quick Tip
Don’t be tempted to upgrade your bread for this recipe. Sourdoughs and crusty country breads will yield dense, heavy cubes
that can weigh your dish down. Soft, thin-crusted loaves from the supermarket make the best stuffing.

Cranberries
High in vitamin C, these hard, tart berries are grown in bogs in colder regions of North America and Europe. They’re almost
always eaten cooked, as in the classic Thanksgiving relish.
