Moms Delicious Turkey Stuffing Recipes

EASY TURKEY STUFFING

Steps:

• In 10-inch skillet, melt butter over medium-high heat. Add onion, celery and carrots; cook, stirring occasionally, until tender.
• In large bowl, mix bread cubes, parsley, poultry seasoning, salt and pepper. Add broth and butter-onion mixture, stirring until desired moistness (stuffing will become a little more moist during roasting because it will absorb juices from turkey).
• Use to stuff 1 (14- to 18-lb) turkey. After stuffing turkey, place any remaining stuffing in 1- or 2-quart casserole that has been sprayed with cooking spray; cover and refrigerate. Bake stuffing in casserole with turkey for last 35 to 40 minutes of roasting time or until thoroughly heated.

MOM'S STOVETOP TURKEY STUFFING

Steps:

• Cook on low heat: Cover and turn heat to low. Cook for an hour or until the apples are cooked through. Check every 15 or 20 minutes or so and add water or stock as needed while cooking to keep the stuffing moist and keep it from sticking to the bottom of the pan. You'll likely need to add at least one more cup of stock or water, if not two. The stuffing should not be crispy or crunchy, but softened, as it would be if it had been cooked entirely inside the turkey.

MOM'S TURKEY STUFFING

Steps:

• Brown the ground beef in a pot of dutch oven over medium heat. Use a wooden spoon to break the beef into little chunks. Drain the grease.
• Stir in the diced onion and celery and cook until tender and soft. Turn off the heat and let cool slightly.
• Stir in the stuffing mix. Slowly pour in the water, stirring so that all the dry bread pieces soak up the water evenly.
• Let the stuffing sit for about 10-15 minutes to allow the bread to soften from the water.
• Spoon the stuffing into the cavity of a turkey that is ready to be roasted. As you are stuffing the turkey, you can gently press the stuffing into the cavity with the back of the spoon. This can allow you to get more stuffing into the cavity.
• Roast the turkey according to the temperature and time for the size and weight of your turkey.

PORTUGUESE TURKEY & STUFFING

Steps:

• Combine the first 8 ingredients of the marindate then place the thawed turkey in the marinade. Rub the turkey with the marinade, then put some of it inside the turkey. Marinade for 24 hours in the roasting pan in the fridge, turning it over every couple of hours.
• Remove the turkey from the fridge 2 hours prior to cooking. Preheat the oven to 400°F.
• Stuff the turkey with the stuffing. If there is too much, place the balance of the stuffing in a pouch made of a double layer of foil, seal then place in the roasting plan.
• Pour the lemon juice over the turkey, sprinkle with paprika, dot with butter and a drizzle of oil. To the marinade, add the onion and ketchup.
• Roast approximately 1/2 hour uncovered, then reduce to 325F and cook for 1 hour uncovered. Baste then cover with lid. After 3 hours in the oven, add the potatoes and carrots to the pan, basting with the sauce . Cover the turkey and continue basting throughout the roasting process. (15 min cooking time per lb of turkey to165 F). Allow turkey to rest 20 minutes prior to carving.
• Stuffing: Combine all off the ingredients together then add the boiling water to attain a thick consistency. Once cool enough to handle, mix well using your hands. Add more bread crumbs if too soft and water if too hard then taste and adjust for seasoning. *Stuffing can be made a day ahead and stored in the refrigerator in an air tight container.

MOM'S DELICIOUS TURKEY STUFFING RECIPE

Steps:

• Combine all Ingredients under the first section of Dry Ingredients in a large bowl.
• Boil a cup of water and add the butter and chicken OXO into it.
• Drizzle the water, butter, and chicken stalk mixture over your dry ingredients bowl while stirring it all together. All of the dry ingredients should be moist.
• Stuff Turkey with about half of the stuffing mixture. This stuffing will cook inside the turkey as the turkey cooks. A stuffed turkey may take a bit longer to cook than a turkey that is unstuffed, so take that into consideration when timing your turkey.
• After stuffing the turkey tie the turkeys legs together to hold it all in.
• With the turkey in a roasting pan, cover the turkey in Tin Foil and Cook at 350 degrees for 20 minutes a pound.
• The other half of the stuffing can be cooked separately in a casserole dish. Just cover with tinfoil and cook for 1 hour at 325 degrees.
• Remove tin foil from the turkey about 30 minutes before the turkey should be done to help the turkey brown. And when the turkey is done remove from oven and let sit for a few minutes.
• Remove stuffing from inside of the turkey and mix with other stuffing that was cooked separately. The stuffing cooked inside the turkey will be much more moist than the other, so when mixed together they become the best turkey stuffing ever!

MY MOM'S PERFECT THANKSGIVING STUFFING

Steps:

• 1. In a large bowl, combine the bag of bread cubes with Pepperidge Farm herbed seasoned stuffing.
• 2. In a frying pan, melt butter over medium-high heat. Sautée onions, green pepper, and celery (or celery seed) until all is softened and translucent.
• 3. Pour melted butter and vegetables over all bread cubes and crumbs.
• 4. Mix in the two beaten eggs. Toss.
• 5. Add: 1 tsp Garlic Powder 1 tsp Poultry Seasoning 2 Tbsp Dried Parsley 1 Tsp Oregano Toss again.
• 6. Now pour chicken broth over all of the mixture making sure that stuffing is ALMOST wet. You want it to be more than damp, but not downright wet so that stuffing doesn't dry out while inside turkey baking. (You can judge if stuffing is becoming too wet, just reserve the rest of the broth if not needed. Many people like to use milk, but I find that it causes it to have a bland flavor. The chicken broth is the secret to excellent flavor, here.)
• 7. Toss once again, making sure all bread is well coated with all ingredients.
• 8. Stuff the turkey, packing tightly, but not too tightly (as in "don't really jam it in there") at both ends. (If you have any leftover, you can put it in a casserole dish, and refrigerate until 45 minutes before turkey is done, then put in the oven with turkey for extra stuffing.)
• 9. Use softened butter and, using fingers, rub butter all over turkey until coated. Then shake a little paprika over the top of the entire turkey.
• 10. Put about 2 tablespoons flour inside the baking bag before putting the turkey inside. Push turkey into the bag. Close bag tightly. Make three slits across the top of the bag for ventilation and put it into a roaster pan.
• 11. Put the lid on the roaster. Then bake following instructions for the size turkey you have. (**Note: the baking bag will probably cut baking time by at least 3/4 hr to 1 hour, but really holds in the juices and turkey stays very moist and juicy.) No basting is required when you use the baking bag, but if you wish, you can baste one or two times during baking.
• 12. **Note** Be sure to remember to make the slits in the top of the baking bag, maybe an inch or two long, and be sure to put the little bit of flour into the bottom of the bag before you put the turkey inside. When finished, you will have an ample supply of broth inside the bag to make your gravy. Simply use a cup or ladle to scoop it all out. (What broth I don't need, I always put into a plastic container and freeze to use when I make my chicken soups. I add it into the pot of soup and it gives my soups added extra special flavor!)
