Yield: 6 to 8 servings

Ingredients

  1. 1 stick unsalted butter, plus more for the dish
  2. 6 slices thick-cut bacon, sliced 1/4 inch thick
  3. 1 pound Brussels sprouts, trimmed and sliced
  4. Kosher salt
  5. 1 large onion, chopped
  6. 4 large stalks celery, chopped
  7. 1 cup jarred cooked chestnuts, chopped
  8. 2 cloves garlic, minced
  9. 1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme
  10. 1 tablespoon chopped fresh sage
  11. Freshly ground pepper
  12. 2 1/2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
  13. 2 large eggs
  14. 12 cups stale 1/2-inch multigrain bread cubes (about 2 pounds)
  15. 1/2 cup chopped fresh parsley

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375˚. Butter a 3-quart baking dish. Cook the bacon in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until crisp and browned, 7 to 8 minutes. Stir in the Brussels sprouts and a pinch of salt and cook, stirring, until wilted, about 2 minutes. Remove to a bowl.
  2. Melt 6 tablespoons butter in the pot. Add the onion, celery, chestnuts, garlic, thyme, sage, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are softened, about 6 minutes. Add the chicken broth and bring to a simmer, then remove from the heat. Let cool slightly, about 5 minutes.
  3. Whisk the eggs in a large bowl. Add the bread cubes, Brussels sprouts mixture, vegetable-broth mixture and parsley; stir until well combined. Transfer to the prepared baking dish, dot with the remaining 2 tablespoons butter and cover with foil.
  4. Bake the stuffing until hot, about 30 minutes. Uncover and bake until golden brown, 25 to 30 minutes. Let cool at least 15 minutes before serving.
