Instructions 

  • Toast the bread pieces and cool before beginning.
  • On medium high heat in a very large skillet melt the stick of butter.
  • Add the onions, celery, celery leaves, salt, pepper and poultry seasoning to the melted butter. Cook stirring constantly until the onions are slightly golden and translucent.
  • Remove the pan from the heat and stir in half of the bread pieces, tossing well to coat with the vegetables and seasonings.
  • Add the remaining bread pieces and parsley to the pan. Mix until all the pieces of bread are completely covered with vegetables and seasonings.
  • Add chicken broth as needed until two cups of the broth have been incorporated.
  • Butter a casserole dish with 2 tablespoons butter.
  • Spread the stuffing into the casserole dish.
  • Pour the remaining ¼ cup of chicken brother over the top and cover with aluminum foil.
  • Bake in a preheated 350 F. degree oven for 30 - 45 minutes.
  • For the last 15 minutes remove the aluminum foil and allow the top to lightly brown.
  • Makes about 6 one cup servings of bread stuffing.
