Cómo preparar Basic Stuffing Balls With Variations
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with foil for easy cleanup.
- Melt 4 tablespoons of butter or margarine in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Add 1 medium onion, chopped, and 2 celery stalks, chopped, and sauté until softened, about 5-7 minutes.
- In a large bowl, combine the sautéed vegetables with 6 cups of cubed bread (day-old bread works best!), 1/2 cup chicken broth (or more, as needed), 1 teaspoon poultry seasoning, 1/2 teaspoon sage, 1/4 teaspoon thyme, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
- Add your choice of variations: 1 cup chopped apples, raisins, cranberries, walnuts, or pecans.
- Gently mix all ingredients until well combined. Add more broth if needed to achieve a moist but not soggy consistency.
- Shape the mixture into 8 (or more, depending on desired size) balls. Dampen your hands with cold water if needed to prevent sticking.
- Place stuffing balls on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown and heated through. For smaller appetizer-sized balls, reduce baking time to 10-15 minutes.
- If baking alongside a meat dish, add the stuffing balls to the oven during the final 30 minutes of cooking.
- Garnish your main dish with the stuffing balls and optional grilled bacon rolls (see optional recipe below).
