Ingredients
12 cups bread cubes (preferably day-old)
1 cup unsalted butter
2 cups chopped onion
2 cups chopped celery
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
1 tablespoon poultry seasoning
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
2 to 4 cups chicken broth
Instructions
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
2. Spread the bread cubes on a baking sheet and toast in the preheated oven for about 10 minutes, or until lightly browned. Transfer to a large mixing bowl.
3. In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the onions and celery, cooking until soft, about 8 minutes.
4. Stir the parsley, poultry seasoning, salt, and pepper into the vegetable mixture, then transfer the mixture to the bowl with the bread cubes.
5. Gradually pour in the chicken broth, mixing gently until the bread is moist but not soggy (use more or less broth as needed).
6. Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish and cover with aluminum foil.
7. Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. Remove foil and bake an additional 15 minutes, or until the top is crisp and golden brown.
