Name: Spicy Sausage Dressing
Prep time: 45 min
Total time: 1 h 45 min
Yield: 8
Ingredients: 3 tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil; 4 c. milk; 1/4 c. chicken broth; 2 eggs; 12 c. 1/2-inch cubes day-old white bread (preferably Portuguese or soft baguette); 1 lb. Portuguese linguica or hot Italian sausage; 1/4 lb. ground beef; 3 clove garlic; 1 stalk celery; 1 bay leaf; 1 green bell pepper; 1 yellow onion; 1 tsp. kosher salt; 1/2 tsp. red pepper flakes; 1/2 tsp. ground black pepper; 1/4 c. Chopped flat-leaf parsley

Step 1Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Grease a 9 x 13 dish with oil; set aside.

Step 2In a large bowl, whisk together milk, broth, and eggs. Add bread, mix well, and set aside until milk is absorbed, about 15 minutes.

Step 3Meanwhile, in a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook sausage and beef, breaking meat apart with a spoon, until browned throughout, about 10 minutes. Add garlic, celery, bay leaf, bell pepper, onion, salt, red pepper flakes, and black pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender and golden brown, about 15 minutes; remove and discard bay leaf.

Step 4Transfer meat mixture to bowl with bread, add parsley, and stir to combine. Transfer to prepared dish, spread out evenly, and bake until deep golden brown on top, about 1 hour. (Cover with foil after 45 minutes if top starts to burn before dressing is fully cooked.)
