Chef Beau Macmillan uses brioche bread, breakfast sausage, chestnuts, and apples to add depth to his Thanksgiving stuffing.

Chef's tips: The stuffing may be placed inside the turkey or baked separately in a casserole.
To do this, butter the casserole, place the stuffing in the dish, and cover with a buttered paper and at 350°F for 1 hour.

Make-ahead: The stuffing may be made in advance and kept refrigerated.

  • Ingredients

1 pound ground pork sausage (preferably breakfast sausage)
1/2 onion, finely chopped
1/2 celery, finely chopped
1 loaf unsliced brioche bread
1/3 pound chestnuts (cooked pieces)
1½ green apple, diced
1 egg
1/2 bunch parsley, finely chopped
1/2 bunch thyme, finely chopped
7 ounces turkey or chicken stock
3 ounces sparkling cider
1½ ounces sugar
1½ ounces sweet butter
Salt and pepper to taste
Preparation

Place the cubed bread onto a baking sheet and cook in a preheated oven at 300°F.

Sauté the sausage meat in a skillet until browned.
Add the onion and celery and cook for about 5 minutes on a low flame.

Put the sausage meat into a bowl along with the cubed bread.

Melt the butter in a small skillet, add the sugar and sauté the apples for about 2 minutes, add the chestnuts and cook together for another 2 minutes.

Put the apples and chestnuts in the bowl with other ingredients.
