14 ingredients
8 steps

Ingredients

  • 1 (4 lb.) fryer, cut up (I buy extra pkg. of gizzards and livers to boil with fryer for Giblet Gravy)
  • 3 Tbsp. margarine (add to fryer to make broth richer)
  • 6 c. cornbread (for dressing)
  • 3 c. chopped onions
  • 2 bunches chopped green onions
  • 1 1/2 c. chopped celery
  • 1 medium chopped bell pepper
  • 3 eggs
  • 2 c. light bread or 2 c. leftover biscuits
  • sage to taste
  • salt and black pepper to taste
  • 1 small can Pet milk
  • sweet milk
  • chicken broth

Directions

  1. 1
    Mix well all ingredients, except Pet milk and milk.
  2. 2
    Add Pet milk and some of the chicken broth (save 3 cups chicken broth for Giblet Gravy).
  3. 3
    Add sweet milk, enough to make a medium to thin mixture (depending upon how moist a dressing you desire).
  4. 4
    Mix well.
  5. 5
    Taste to see if you have enough salt and sage.
  6. 6
    Remove 2 cups of the mixture, put this to the side for the Giblet Gravy. Pour dressing in a large well-greased roasting pan.
  7. 7
    (I use margarine.)
  8. 8
    Put a pan of water under your dressing when baking, this will keep from getting too brown on bottom.
