How To Make mama's chicken & dressing

Step 1

Put your crumbled up cornbread into a large stock pot.

Step 2

Pour hot chicken broth over the cornbread to let it soften, about 1 hour. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Step 3

Add the stick of butter, stir as needed.
Step 4

Next add your chopped onion, cream of celery soup, cream of mushroom soup and eggs. Stir until well blended.
Step 5

Add sage,salt and pepper according to your taste.
Step 6

Once you have all of this mixed, add your chicken, mixing throughly. This mixture should be pourable and not hard to stir. If it is, just add a little more chicken broth, until it reaches the desired consistency.
Step 7

Pour into large glass baking dish, that has been sprayed with cooking oil spray.
Step 8

Bake in oven, at 375 degrees, until golden brown approx. 1.5 hours. (You may have created 2 large portions of this dressing, depending on the thickness of your cornbread and size of your chicken) So, just freeze one, for cooking later! Serve with cranberry sauce.
