Ingredients
- 8 cups Cornbread
- 8 oz Andouille sausage
- 1 Yellow onion
- 3 ribs Celery
- 1/2 Bell pepper
- 3 cloves Garlic
- 3 cups Chicken stock
- 2 Eggs
- 4 tbsp Butter
- 1 tsp Sage
- 1 tsp Thyme
- 1 tsp Cajun seasoning
Steps
- Dry the crumbled cornbread in a 300°F oven for 15 minutes. Dry bread drinks up stock without turning to mush — this step decides the texture.
- Brown the diced andouille 6 minutes, then add the onion, celery, bell pepper, and garlic; cook 8 minutes until soft.
- Toss the vegetables and sausage with the dried cornbread, sage, thyme, and Cajun seasoning in a big bowl.
- Whisk the eggs into the stock and pour over, tossing until every crumb is moistened but not swimming. Add stock by feel.
- Butter a baking dish, pack in the dressing, dot with butter, and bake at 375°F for 30 minutes until golden and crisp at the edges.
