Apricot and Herb Stuffing

Ingredients:

• 4 tablespoons European-style butter (such as Keller's)
• 1 ½ cups chopped onion
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh garlic
• ½ cup chopped celery
• ¼ cup chopped scallions
• ¼ cup chopped fresh parsley
• 4 cups dried bread cubes
• 1/3 cup dried apricots, roughly chopped
• ½ cup chopped walnuts
• 1 teaspoon dried basil
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon dried sage
• ½ cup chicken stock
• Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Directions:

Preheat oven to 325°F.

Heat the butter in a large sauté pan. Sauté the onion and garlic for about 5 minutes over medium heat. Add the celery and scallions and sauté for 2 more minutes.

In a large bowl, mix the onion mixture with all the remaining ingredients. Place the stuffing in a well-greased baking dish and bake for 1 hour.
