Crab Gumbo Dressing


My fil introduced me to this recipe a few years ago. It is a favorite at family gatherings and the fall/winter holidays. The cornbread needs to be made the night before, crumbled and set out to air-dry overnight.

Steps


Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the sausage and saut / stir for 5 minutes or until lightly browned.
Transfer sausage to a paper-towel lined plate and keep drippings in skillet.
Add the onion , scallion , celery , red pepper , and garlic to the skillet.
Saut / stir over medium heat for 10 minutes or until the onion is softened.
Add in the worcestershire sauce and cajun seasoning.
Stir to combine.
Transfer the cooked vegetables to a large mixing bowl.
Add in the cornbread , cooked andouille , crabmeat , and parsley.
Stir to combine.
Gradually stir in eggs and approximately 1 cup of broth until the stuffing is evenly moist but not soggy.
Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Transfer stuffing mixture to a lightly buttered casserole dish.
Drizzle with 1 / 2 cup broth , cover with foil and bake in a 350f oven for about 30 minutes.
