Step 1

Leave the bread out overnight spread out on baking sheets to get stale. Alternatively, you can bake your bread cubes at 225 degrees F, stirring occasionally, until they get crisp - approximately 1 hour of bake time.

Step 2

Coat a 3 quart baking dish with cooking spray. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.

Step 3

Melt 6 tablespoons of butter in a large pan over medium heat. Add the onion and celery and cook for 6-8 minutes or until tender.

Step 4

Add the garlic and cook for 1 more minute.

Step 5

Place the bread cubes in a very large bowl and add the onion and celery mixture.

Step 6

Add the sage and 2 tablespoons of chopped parsley to the bowl.

Step 7

Add the eggs, chicken broth, salt and pepper to the bowl. Stir until bread is thoroughly coated and everything is combined.

Step 8

Pour the stuffing into the prepared dish. Melt the remaining 4 tablespoons of butter and drizzle it over the top.

Step 9

Cover the dish with foil and bake for 25 minutes. Uncover the dish, then bake for an additional 15 minutes or until top is golden brown.

Step 10

Cool for 5-10 minutes then sprinkle with remaining 2 tablespoons of parsley and serve.
