1 Tbs. butter
2 onions (3/4 lb. total), chopped
1 cup chopped celery
2 Tbs. minced garlic
About 2 cups chicken broth
1 loaf (1 lb.) sourdough bread, cut into 1/2" cubes
2 jars (6 oz. each) marinated artichoke hearts, drained and chopped
1 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
1 1/2 tsp. poultry seasoning
1 1/2 Tbs. minced fresh rosemary leaves, or 3/4 tsp. crumbled dried rosemary
* 1 lb. Jimmy Dean (or similar) sausage, browned. (The recipe didn't call for this, but I added it and it was very good)
Salt and pepper1 large egg
In a 12" frying pan over high heat, cook mushrooms, butter, onions, celery, and garlic, stirring often, until veggies are lightly browned--about 15 mins. Pour into a large bowl. Add a bit of broth to pan and stir to scrape up browned bits. Add to bowl.
Pour 2 cups broth into bowl and add bread, artichoke hearts, parmesan, poultry seasoning, and rosemary; mix well. Mix in sausage, if using. Add salt and pepper to taste. Make a well in stuffing. Add egg and beat with a fork to blend; mix egg with stuffing.
Preheat oven to 325-350 (use temp. that turkey requires). Spoon stuffing into a shallow 3-qt. (9x13) casserole. For moist stuffing, cover with foil; for crusty stuffing, do not cover. Bake until hot (at least 150 degrees in center) or lightly browned, about 50 minutes.
Make ahead: Up to 1 day ahead, make stuffing, put in casserole, cover, and chill. Allow about 1 hour to bake.
