Chef Ayo Cherry upgrades a box of cornbread stuffing with spicy sausage, aromatics, and of course, butter to create a southern-style Thanksgiving dressing.

Instructions

1
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sausage and cook, breaking up into small pieces, until no longer pink, 7–8 minutes.
2
Add the celery, onion, and garlic. Season with salt and cook until the vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes.
3
Add the cornbread stuffing and toss to combine. Pour the boiling water and melted butter over the stuffing mix.
4
Remove the pan from the heat, cover, and let sit for 5 minutes, until all of the liquid is absorbed. Fluff with a fork, then transfer to a small casserole dish.
5
Turn the broiler to high.
6
Broil the dressing for 1–2 minutes, until browned and crispy on top.

Enjoy!
