For a deeper, more complex flavor, try using smoked oysters.
The dressing can be prepared a day in advance. Cover and refrigerate before baking.

    This was a hit at Thanksgiving! The oysters added such a unique flavor that everyone loved.

  • Kelton Fadel

    I found the dressing a little too salty for my taste. Next time, I'll reduce the amount of salt or use low-sodium chicken broth.
