- Cover with foil and bake for 20 minutes.
- Remove the foil and resume baking for an additional 5 minutes if a crispy top is desired.
- Serve and enjoy.
Notes
Water can be substituted for broth. White wine can be used as well as PART of the liquid need, not all.
The amount of actual liquid used to make this (or any stuffing/dressing) varies. This recipe and its written proportions should not exceed 4 cups of liquid. It will probably be closer to 2½, but I erred on the side of caution by stating 29 oz. needed.
