Try this bewtiful stuffing next time you're cooking a chicken:
4 slices of thick, day old bread
4-6 sprigs of fresh thyme
A medium sized sprig of fresh parsley
6-8 fresh sage leaves
1/2 a chopped apple
A generous teaspoon of softened butter
A little salt and black pepper
* Break the bread up and place in a food processor. Blitz for 10 seconds.
* Chop the herbs, and together with the rest of the ingredients, add to the bread [in the processor].
* Blitz for a further 10-15 seconds, until the butter has slightly binded everything together.
Makes enough mixture to stuff a medium sized chicken
The apple gives it a moister texture than usual stuffing, and also gives it a slightly fruitier taste.
Fresh herbs are nicer, but you can sustitute them for dried if you want. Just use a teaspoon of each [or to taste].
Also delicious with pork
*Edit* 4 slices of thick bread...not 6 ;D
