Festive Cornbread and Sausage Dressing

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease an 8-inch square baking pan.

2. 2

   Make the cornbread: In a small bowl, combine the cornbread mix, milk, and egg; stir until well blended. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan.

3. 3

   Bake in the preheated oven for 15 to 19 minutes, until golden brown. Remove from the oven and let cool. Reduce the oven temperature to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).

4. 4

   While the cornbread bakes, make the dressing: Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook the onions, celery, and bell pepper in the melted butter until tender but not browned. Remove from the heat; do not drain.

5. 5

   At the same time, cook the sausage in another large skillet over medium-high heat until evenly browned. Remove from the heat.

6. 6

   Crumble the cooled cornbread into a food processor. Add the bread pieces and pulse until crumbly. Transfer the mixture to a large bowl.

7. 7

   Add sage, thyme, poultry seasoning, salt, and pepper to the cornbread mixture. Mix in the parsley, cooked vegetables, and sausage with the pan drippings. Stir in the chicken stock and eggs; it will be a bit mushy.

8. 8

   Grease a 9x13-inch baking pan and fill it with the cornbread dressing.

9. 9

   Bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour.
