Ingredients
Scale
- 5 cups cooked diced turkey breast
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 large shallots, chopped
- 3/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh thyme
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh sage
- 3 celery stalks, chopped
- 8 ounces frozen mixed vegetables
- 3 cups turkey or chicken broth
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 cup cornstarch
- 10 ounces whole wheat French bread, cut into small cubes
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 medium onion, minced
- 2 large stalks celery, minced
- 8 fresh sage leaves, minced
- 1/2 cup chopped parsley
- 1 teaspoon Bell’s turkey seasoning
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 large egg, beaten
- 1 1/2 cups chicken broth
Instructions
- Stale cubed bread works best here; you can cut the bread the night before. When melted, add onions, celery, parsley, sage, Bell’s turkey seasoning, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and pepper and sauté on medium-low until soft, about 5-10 minutes.
- Remove from heat and let cool a few minutes, then transfer to a large bowl and add the toasted bread.
- Combine egg and broth in a bowl and whisk, then add to the stuffing and mix to combine.
- Preheat the oven to 425°F.
- Wipe the skillet and add oil over medium heat. Add the shallots, parsley, thyme, and sage and cook until almost soft, about 2-3 minutes.
- Add the celery and cook until the vegetables are soft, about 3-5 minutes.
- Add the frozen mixed vegetables, turkey, 2 cups turkey broth, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and black pepper, and bring to a boil. Stir and simmer over medium-low heat for 10 minutes, stirring until the flavors meld.
- Meanwhile, combine 1 cup turkey broth with the cornstarch and mix well to dissolve.
- Add to the turkey mixture and cook over medium-low heat, stirring until thickened, about 4-6 minutes.
- Remove from heat and transfer to an oven-safe, deep 9 x 13-inch baking dish.
- Place the stuffing over the turkey filling.
- Bake for 30 to 45 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the filling is hot and bubbling.
