INGREDIENTS

  • 5 stalks celery, diced
  • 1 1/2 cups chopped onion
  • 5 cups crumbled cornbread
  • 1/2 cup chopped, cooked turkey giblets
  • 8 ounces shucked oysters
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon dried sage
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 cups chicken stock

DIRECTIONS

  1. In a skillet, saute the celery with the onions until the onions are translucent.
  2. In a large bowl combine the crumbled cornbread, cooked celery, cooked onions, giblets, oysters, parley, basil, salt, paprika, dried sage and nutmeg. Toss well.
  3. Beat the 2 eggs. Add the eggs and chicken stock to the stuffing mixture. Stuff stuffing in bird's cavity. Remove stuffing promptly once bird is cooked.

This stuffing smelled and looked great going into the oven...I love all the spices and herbs. However, I found it was quite heavy and dry...maybe the 2 cups of chicken stock should be 2 cans of chicken stock??? I'll use 2 cans next time...it's definitely worth another try as the flavor and aroma is great!

I've never made or had oyster stuffing and my husband hasn't had it in years, so this year being the first to do it ourselves, we found this recipe and it was excellent. I never eat much stuffing, not loving it or disliking it really, but I've even gone back for leftovers with this one. Thanks Erika!! I was sooo worried about doing an oyster stuffing and never having made it before. I followed the recipe exactly (so unlike me) and it was easy.
