Peggy's Cornbread Dressing
This is a good, old fashioned recipe for Southern-style dressing. You can serve this how you like, but we like it cut into squares.
Ingredients
- 1 small hen
- 4 cup cornbread (crumbled)
- 5 cups cold biscuits (crumbled)
- 4 stalks celery (chopped)
- 1 lg onion (chopped)
- 1 stick butter or margarine
- 3 eggs (beaten)
- 2 cans Cream of Chicken soup
- sage or poultry seasoning (to your personal taste - I like to taste it but not be overwhelmed by too much sage)
- salt and pepper (to taste)
- chicken broth (to make dressing the texture of mashed potatoes)
Instructions
- Saute onions and celery in margarine until soft.
- Crumble biscuits and cornbread in large bowl or pot.
- Pour hot chicken broth over crumbs!
- Add other ingredients including one can of cream of chicken soup.
- Let set about 1 hour to marinate.
- If the mixture seems too dry, add a little more broth.
- Pour mixture in 9x13 baking pan or dish!
- Bake at 375 degrees for 30 or 45 minutes.
- You may also mix chicken pieces in the dressing, if you like. Either way it's really good!
