Garlic Bread Stuffing

Garlic Bread Stuffing

We’ve made a couple of different stuffing recipes over the years (see here), but our new Garlic Bread Stuffing might be might my favorite. It’s definitely the most creative idea, and it’s right in our wheelhouse!

You know that we love garlic bread here at Chef Shamy. So why not use garlic bread as the base of a stuffing recipe? It turned out absolutely delicious! And it’s incredibly flavorful and moist.

Here’s how we did it!

The Recipe

Start with a loaf of good french bread. Cut the loaf in half lengthwise, and brush it with our Fresh Churned Garlic Butter. Then bake it. Now you have Garlic Bread! Allow it to cool, then cut it up into bite size pieces.

Meanwhile, saute some onion and celery in some more Garlic Butter. Add some sage, thyme, and chicken broth. Then add this to the pieces of Garlic Bread. Mix it up and put it in a baking dish. After about half an hour in the oven, your stuffing is ready!

Stuffing vs Dressing

Okay, so technically this recipe is dressing, not stuffing. Stuffing implies that you cook it inside the turkey. But that doesn’t mean you couldn’t do everything as the recipe says and then cook it in the bird instead of a baking dish!

Enjoy!
