Instructions

1. 1
   Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.

   Dry the bread cubes by leaving them out overnight or toasting them in the oven for 10-15 minutes.
3. 3
   In a large skillet, cook the Italian sausage over medium heat until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Transfer sausage to a mixing bowl.
4. 4
   In the same skillet, melt butter and sauté onion and celery for about 5 minutes. Add garlic, sage, and thyme; cook 1 minute more.
5. 5
   Add the sautéed veggies to the bowl with sausage. Add the bread cubes and fresh parsley. Toss everything together.
6. 6
   Whisk together chicken broth, eggs, salt, and pepper in a separate bowl. Pour over the bread mixture and gently toss until evenly moistened.

   Transfer stuffing to the prepared baking dish. Cover with foil and bake for 30 minutes. Remove foil and bake for 15 minutes more, until the top is golden.
