Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups shredded rotisserie chicken
  • 4 cups stale bread cubes preferably sourdough or French bread
  • 1 medium onion finely chopped
  • 2 stalks celery finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter
  • 1 teaspoon poultry seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/2 teaspoon sage
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/2 cups chicken broth
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream
  • 1/4 cup fresh parsley chopped (for garnish)

Equipment

  • Large skillet
  • Mixing bowl
  • 9x13-inch baking dish
  • Aluminum foil
  • Spatula or wooden spoon

Method
 

Preheat Oven:
  1. Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
Sauté Vegetables:
  1. Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
  2. Add onions, celery, and garlic. Sauté until softened, about 5 minutes.
Mix Ingredients:
  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the sautéed vegetables, shredded chicken, and bread cubes.
  2. Add poultry seasoning, thyme, sage, salt, and pepper. Toss to mix evenly.
Add Liquid:
  1. Pour chicken broth and heavy cream over the mixture. Gently fold until bread cubes are moistened but not soggy.
Assemble and Bake:
  1. Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly.
  2. Cover with foil and bake for 20 minutes.
  3. Remove the foil and bake an additional 15-20 minutes until the top is golden and crisp.
Garnish and Serve:
  1. Sprinkle freshly chopped parsley on top before serving warm.

Notes

Use Stale Bread: Stale or day-old bread absorbs liquid better, preventing sogginess.
Customize the Flavor: Add cranberries, chopped nuts, or sausage for variations.
Adjust Liquid: If the mixture looks dry, add a splash more chicken broth before baking.
Test for Doneness: Ensure the top is golden and slightly crisp before removing from the oven.
