Mid Atlantic Stuffing Recipes

MID-ATLANTIC STUFFING

Steps:

• Toast bread cubes for 10 to 15 minutes in a 325 degree F oven until golden. Transfer to bowl.
• Saute 1 pound meat, crumbled or cubed in skillet over medium heat until brown, about 5 to 10 minutes. Transfer meat to bread bowl.
• In same skillet, melt the butter. Add onions, and celery to skillet. Saute until soft, about 10 minutes. Combine softened vegetables, herbs, spices, dried fruits, nuts, and remaining vegetables with bread/meat mixture.
• Add just enough stock to moisten bread mixture. Pack the neck and cavity loosely with stuffing, folding the neck skin under and fastening with a skewer. Or lightly pack stuffing into large, shallow, stoneware baking dish. For a stuffed bird: Roast turkey at 325 degrees F for 15 minutes per pound, or until turkey temperature reaches 180 degrees and juices run clear when thigh is pierced.
• For loose stuffing: Drizzle with stock, cover and bake at 325 degree F for 20 to 30 minutes. Uncover and brown an additional 10 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
• In a large bowl, combine the cornbread mix, eggs, and milk. Whisk until the batter is smooth.

• Quarter the scallops and add to a medium bowl. Cut the shrimp into thirds and add to the same bowl.
• Add the scallops and shrimp to the crumbled cornbread, along with the crab meat, chicken stock, eggs, garlic powder, onion powder, poultry seasoning, dried thyme, salt, pepper, and 1 teaspoon fresh thyme. Mix until combined.
• Grease the dish used to bake the cornbread with more nonstick spray, then spread the stuffing in the dish in an even layer. Sprinkle the top with the remaining teaspoon of fresh thyme.
• Bake until the stuffing is set and firm to the touch, 40-50 minutes.
• Serve warm.
• Enjoy!
