Ingredients

  • 1 medium carrot, peeled and rough chopped
  • 1 medium onion, roughly chopped
  • 2 stalks celery, roughly chopped
  • 1/2 bunch fresh sage
  • 1 1/2 pounds loose sweet Italian sausage
  • Extra-virgin olive oil
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 5 cups cubed sourdough bread, crusts removed
  • 1 pound roasted chestnuts
  • 1 cup low-sodium chicken stock
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1 large egg

Directions

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F and butter a 9 by 11-inch baking dish.

In a food processor puree the carrot, onion, celery and sage until you have a fine pulp. Set a large skillet over medium-high heat and brown the sausage in a little olive oil. Once you have a nice brown color and the fat has rendered - about 5 minutes, use a slotted spoon to remove the sausage and place in a large mixing bowl. Add the vegetable pulp to the pan and saute until most of the moisture has evaporated. Season with salt and pepper. Add to the mixing bowl with the sausage and also add the bread crumbs and chestnuts.

Mix together chicken stock, cream and egg. Pour this wet mixture over the dressing mix. Season and fold everything together. Pour out into the roasting dish and bake for 30 to 35 minutes until golden brown on the top (if it gets too brown before the 30 minutes is up, tent with foil).

    Tried this recipe for Thanksgiving for the 1st time and will certainly do it again...The best dressing I have ever tasted, sooo flavorful and delicious!! Could not find roasted chestnuts in my small town. Found fresh chestnuts and roasted them myself, even better so they were fresh, and what a nice combination with the other ingredients. Everyone loved it!! can't wait to do it again...

    I made this dressing 4 years ago for Thanksgiving; it was the best dressing I had ever made. I decided I would use only this recipe but promtly lost it. Every year since I have been trying to replace this recipe with others, hoping my husband would like the dressing as much as we loved this one. No other recipe that I have found worked. I was so happy to find it agian and this recipe will now become the staple for Thanksgiving in my home. PS it is now saved in several locations in order to make sure it does not get lost again.

    A most delicious dish. Made it last year and it was a hit, so it'll be on the table again this year. To those of you who are finding it difficult and expensive to get chestnuts, I just bought a 20 ounce bag of Galil organic chestnuts shelled and ready to go at Costco for $4.99 - cant beat that!
