Prepare Gluten Free Stuffing For The Whole Family

Chicken and turkey taste best when stuffed, but what do you do when you have a celiac in your family? Quite simple really, make a gluten free stuffing which is easy, delicious and enjoyable for all the family. My daughter has celiac disease so I always prepare our Xmas turkey with gluten free stuffing.

The ingredients include:

3 tablespoons of softened butter
1 loaf gluten free bread
1 bunch parsley
1 large onion
2 eggs
Salt and pepper
1 large fresh chicken or 1 small turkey – no additives

*Adjust the amounts for birds of other sizes
Instructions

1) Put the bread into a food processor and finely crumb it
2) Put the bread into a mixing bowl
3) Put the parsley into the food processor and finely chop it
4) Add parsley to breadcrumbs
5) Place the onion into the food processor and finely chop it
6) Add onion to breadcrumbs
7) Add about 1 teaspoon salt and 1 teaspoon ground pepper
8) Mix together with a large spoon
9) Add eggs to bind the mixture
10) Add the butter chopped into small pieces so it is evenly mixed through the mixture
11) Remove any oval bits from the chicken/turkey and wash with water
12) Stuff the chicken/turkey so that the stuffing is full at the opening of the bird
13) Rub the chicken/turkey with olive oil and coat the top of the stuffing with the oil as well so it crisps.
14) Cook for the recommended time at 1800C
15) Serve with your favorite vegetables and gluten free cranberry sauce for the turkey.

Note: If making gravy use gluten free cornflour.
