Celery Herb Stuffing and Savory Chicken

Celery Herb Stuffing and Savory Chicken

I taught my children this recipe by singing along to Scarborough Fair by Simon and Garfunkel: Parsley, Sage, Rosemary and Thyme, great herb stuffing seasonings. If you can get savory from the Atlantic provinces to green your chicken; it would be the best. My father was a Newfoundlander and swore by their savory.

Ingredients

  • 1 small onion, diced
  • ½ cup diced celery, with leaves
  • 6 slices stale bread, cut into cubes
  • 1 tablespoon ground black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
  • 1 teaspoon dried sage
  • 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon celery salt
  • ½ cup melted butter
  • 1 (3 pound) whole chicken
  • ¼ cup chopped fresh savory

Directions

Step 1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Step 2
Stir together onion, celery, bread, pepper, parsley, sage, rosemary, thyme, and celery salt in a large bowl; pour melted butter over bread mixture and stir to combine.

Step 3
Spoon stuffing into the cavities of chicken; place chicken into a roasting pan. Sprinkle chicken with savory; cover with a lid or foil.

Step 4
Bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour. Remove cover; increase oven temperature to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Roast until browned and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh, near the bone, reads 165 degrees F (74 degrees C), about 15 minutes.

Cook’s Note:

This recipe can be increased for a larger chicken or turkey. Allow 20 minutes per pound at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C), covered, then 425 degrees F (220 degrees C), uncovered, until browned, about 15 minutes more.
