Step-by-Step Instructions
- Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced sweet onion, celery, and minced garlic, seasoning with kosher salt and pepper. Sauté for about 5 minutes, then stir in the chopped fresh herbs and cook for an additional 2 minutes.
- Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish with a little butter or oil. In the dish, combine the bread cubes with the sautéed veggie-herb mixture, tossing gently.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together chicken stock and beaten egg until smooth, then pour over the bread and veggie mixture, tossing gently.
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Place the baking dish in the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, until the stuffing begins to set.
- Heat olive oil in the same skillet. Season the chicken thighs with garlic powder, dried sage, dried oregano, salt, and pepper. Sear the chicken thighs skin-side down for 3-4 minutes, then flip and sear for another 3-4 minutes.
- Carefully remove the partially baked stuffing from the oven and place the browned chicken thighs evenly over the top. Return the dish to the oven and bake for another 20-25 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through.
- In the same skillet, combine chicken stock with flour over medium heat. Whisk constantly until it thickens, about 10-20 minutes.
- Once baked, let the dish rest for a few minutes before serving. Top with chopped parsley and drizzle with homemade gravy.

Notes
For best results, use bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs for juiciness. Let the dish rest after baking to enhance flavors.
