Sausage Sage Onion Stuffing Recipes

EASIEST SAUSAGE STUFFING

Steps:

• Combine sausage, celery, and onion in a skillet over medium heat. Cook, stirring frequently, until sausage is browned and crumbled, 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer cooked mixture to a plate lined with paper towels to soak up excess oil.
• Pour water into a large saucepan and bring to a boil. Stir in butter until melted. Add stuffing mix, cover, and remove from heat. Let stand 5 minutes. Add cooked sausage mixture and stir to combine.

HOMEMADE SAGE AND ONION STUFFING WITH SAUSAGE MEAT

Steps:

• Tear the bread into pieces and whizz around in a food processor until it forms breadcrumbs. Transfer to a mixing bowl. See note 1.
• Chop the onion in a food processor until it is very finely chopped (approximately the size of rice grains). Add to the breadcrumbs in the mixing bowl. See note 1.
• Slit the skins of the sausages and remove the meat. Add to the mixing bowl.
• Add the dried sage and parsley to the mixing bowl. See note 2.
• Mix thoughly to combine all the ingredients together.
• Use half of the mixture to stuff one chicken before roasting. Form the remainder into balls and freeze for later use. See note 3.

SAUSAGE, SAGE & ONION STUFFING

Steps:

• Fry 2 sliced onions in 25g butter for 5 mins, then add 1 small diced Bramley apple and cook briefly.
• Cool, then mix with 800g Cumberland sausages, skins removed, the chopped handful of sage, 140g granary breadcrumbs and seasoning.
• Use to stuff the neck end of the bird, then roll any leftovers into balls. Or, pack the whole mixture into a 1kg loaf tin and top with extra sage leaves.
• Bake with turkey for 30-40 mins. Drain off any fat and serve sliced.

SAGE, ONION AND SAUSAGE STUFFING BALLS

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a large saucepan over a low heat until foaming. Add the onions and fry gently for 8-10 minutes, or until softened. Remove from the heat.
• Stir in the remaining ingredients and season generously with salt and pepper. Mix until well combined.
• If you are making stuffing balls, lightly grease a baking tray and, using wet hands, shape the stuffing into balls about 2½cm/1in in diameter and place on the prepared tray. If preferred transfer the stuffing mixture to a 20cm/8in square tin and press down to smooth the surface. Cover with cling film and transfer to the fridge for at least 30 minutes, but up to two days (assuming the meat is fresh). (The stuffing can be frozen at this stage, but will need to be thoroughly defrosted before cooking.)
• When ready to cook, preheat the oven to 200C/180C Fan/Gas 6.
• Roast the stuffing for 30-40 minutes until cooked through (balls will take about 30 minutes, and a tray 40 minutes).

SAGE, SAUSAGE AND APPLE DRESSING

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
• Put the stuffing cubes in a large bowl and set aside. Butter a 3-quart casserole dish.
• Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sausage and break it up with a wooden spoon. Cook until it loses most of its pink color, but not so much that it's dry, about 5 minutes. Add the sausage and pan drippings to the stuffing cubes. Melt the remaining butter in the pan. Add the onion, apple, celery, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cook until the vegetables get soft, about 5 minutes. Add the broth and parsley and bring to a boil.
• Pour the vegetable mixture over the stuffing cubes and toss until evenly moistened. Mix in the walnuts and eggs. Loosely pack the dressing in the prepared pan and cook uncovered until the top forms a crust, about 40 minutes. Drizzle about 2 tablespoons of turkey pan drippings or melted butter over the top. Cook until the top is crisp and golden, about 20 minutes more.

BEST SAUSAGE STUFFING

Steps:

• Place sausage in a large, deep skillet; cook over medium-high heat until evenly brown, about 10 minutes. Remove sausage from the skillet and let drain on paper towels. Combine melted margarine with the sausage drippings until there is 1 cup of drippings and margarine combined.
• Cook and stir onion and celery in the margarine-dripping mixture in the same skillet over medium heat until onion is tender but not browned, about 10 minutes . Stir in about 1/3 of the bread cubes. Pour onion mixture into a large bowl and stir in remaining bread cubes, sausage, poultry seasoning, and pepper. Watch your hands, it's hot. Mix well. This stuffing is ready for baking.

SAUSAGE STUFFING WITH CARAMELIZED ONIONS

Steps:

• Place sausage in a large skillet over medium heat and cook until browned, turning frequently, 10 minutes. Remove pan from heat and transfer sausage to paper-towel-lined plate. Reserve fat in pan. Cool sausage, then chop. Return pan to stove. Add fennel, carrot, celery, leek, onion and garlic, sprinkle with salt and pepper. Sauté over medium heat, stirring frequently, until vegetables are lightly caramelized, about 10 minutes.
• Heat oven to 350 degrees. Place fennel seeds in a small skillet and toast over medium heat, tossing frequently, until fragrant and lightly colored, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
• In a large mixing bowl, whisk eggs and 2 cups chicken broth together. Add bread and stir until coated evenly. Add sausage, sautéed vegetables, raisins, thyme, sage and fennel seeds. If bread cubes seem dry, add additional chicken broth. Add salt and pepper to taste. Turn into a 3-quart gratin dish and cover with foil. Bake 30 minutes. Remove foil and bake until stuffing is brown, about 10 minutes more.

SAGE AND ONION STUFFING

Steps:

• Dice onions.
• Put them in a pan with just enough water to cover them and parboil.
• Chop the fesh sage finely, if using.
• Drain the onions.
• Mix fresh or powdered sage and oninons in a bowl with the bread crumbs.
• Melt butter, add to stuffing, and season to taste.
• Stuff the bird of your choice or cook at 350 degrees for 35-45 minutes in a well greased pan.

SAUSAGE STUFFING

Steps:

• Add onions, celery, mushrooms, sage, poultry seasoning, 1 stick of butter and chicken stock to a pot. Bring to a boil then reduce heat and simmer until vegetables are tender. Allow to cool.
• In a large bowl combine stuffing mix, browned sausage, and all of the vegetables but not all of the stock. Mix lightly. Add the eggs and continue to add the stock until the stuffing comes together.
• Lightly spray a large oven proof bowl with cooking spray. Loosely spoon the stuffing into the bowl, do not pack in tightly. Dot the top with the remaining 2 tbs of butter.
• Bake at 350 (or whatever temp your other items need to cook at) for 1 hour or until the stuffing reaches an internal temperature of 180 and the top is lightly browned and slightly crisp. If you prefer a moister stuffing then cover with foil for the majority of the cooking and leave uncovered for the last 30 minutes.
