Ingredients
- 1 loaf Safeway SELECT Artisan Pugliese or Como bread
- 2 cups Safeway Chicken Broth
- 1 pound Italian sausage, bulk or with casings removed
- 1 pound packaged sliced mushrooms
- 1 cup Ready Pac Packaged Diced Onions
- 2 teaspoons poultry seasoning
- 1 cup chopped parsley
- 1 (14 ounce) jar marinated artichoke hearts, drained
- 1 cup Lucerne(R) Grated Parmesan Cheese
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Directions
-
Cut bread into 1-inch cubes and put in a large bowl (Tip A). Add chicken broth and mix to moisten bread; set aside.
-
Add sausage to a 12-inch frying pan over high heat. Cook, breaking sausage into 1/2-inch lumps, until meat is lightly browned, 3 to 5 minutes. Add mushrooms, onions, and poultry seasoning; reduce heat to medium-high, cover pan, and cook, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are juicy, 8 to 10 minutes. Uncover, turn heat back to high, and cook, stirring often, until juices have evaporated and vegetables begin to brown, about 5 minutes (Tip B). Remove pan from heat.
-
Meanwhile, add parsley, artichoke hearts, and cheese to bread cubes in bowl. Add hot sausage and vegetables; mix well (Tip C). Season to taste with salt and pepper. Spoon dressing into a 9- by 13-in. casserole.
-
Put dressing in oven and bake until top is browned and edges are crispy, 25 to 30 minutes. Cover with aluminum foil and set aside.
Notes:
-
The bread may be cut a day ahead and kept, wrapped in a plastic bag, at room temperature. Step 2 of the recipe may be done the day before, too; just allow the vegetables to cool, then cover and chill. Before proceeding with step 3, heat the vegetables in the frying pan.
-
TIP A: The key here is to cut bread into cubes no bigger than 1-in. square, and use flavorful Artisan bread.
-
TIP B: After cooking vegetables until soft, uncover pan and cook on high heat to evaporate juices and brown vegetables evenly.
-
TIP C: After combining bread, parsley, artichokes, and cheese, add vegetables and mix well to distribute flavors.
