This chicken dressing recipe came from my grandmother and is a family tradition down here in the South. We love to eat this dressing with roasted chicken.

Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 8 servings

  • 4 cups crumbled cornbread

  • 5 biscuits, crumbled

  • 6 cups chicken broth, divided

  • ½ cup margarine

  • ½ cup diced celery

  • 1 small onion, finely chopped

  • 3 large eggs, beaten

  • 1 teaspoon sage

  • 1 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a roasting pan.

  2. Combine crumbled cornbread and biscuits in a large bowl. Bring broth to a boil in a large saucepan. Pour 1/2 of the boiling broth over cornbread mixture; cover and let stand.

  3. Meanwhile, melt margarine in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add onion and celery; sauté until tender, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir into cornbread mixture.

  4. Pour remaining broth over cornbread mixture. Stir in eggs, sage, and pepper until well combined; transfer to the prepared roasting pan.

  5. Bake in the preheated oven until set in the middle and golden brown on top, about 1 hour.
