Cornbread dressing is a classic Southern dish, often served at family gatherings and holidays.
The key ingredients include cornbread, cooked chicken, celery, onions, broth, and various seasonings.
Cornbread is crumbled to form the base of the dish, which adds a delightful texture.
The choice of chicken preparation (roasted, grilled, or boiled) can impact the dish's flavor and texture.
Seasonings like sage, thyme, and rosemary infuse the dressing with aromatic and savory flavors.
Cornbread dressing can be served alongside roast turkey, grilled chicken, or as a side dish for various meals.
There are numerous opportunities for creativity, such as adding cranberries, pecans, or spicy sausage to the dish.
To keep the dressing moist, ensure you use enough broth and avoid overbaking it.
