Bacon, Mushroom, and Oyster Stuffing

I could never find the right oyster stuffing recipe, so I made my own with bacon, onion, mushrooms, and oysters. It is great with grilled turkey.

Ingredients

• ½ cup butter
• 1 cup white wine
• 2 cups chicken stock
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 pound bacon
• 1 (4 ounce) package fresh mushrooms, sliced
• 1 onion, sliced thin
• 1 (14 ounce) package seasoned stuffing cubes
• 1 (10 ounce) jar oysters, drained and cut into thirds

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Step 2

Place bacon in a large, deep skillet; cook over medium-high heat until evenly brown. Remove bacon to a paper towel-lined plate to drain. Reserve drippings in the skillet.

Step 3

Add the butter to the bacon drippings and melt over medium-high heat. Cook the onion, garlic, and mushrooms in the butter and drippings until the onion has caramelized, 10 to 15 minutes. Pour the wine into the skillet; allow the wine to warm; remove from heat.

Step 4

Place the stuffing cubes in a large bowl. Pour the vegetable mixture over the cubes. Add the chicken stock. Fold the oysters into the mixture. Transfer the stuffing to a 9x13 inch baking dish.

Step 5

Bake in preheated oven until golden brown on top, about 30 minutes.
