Preparation
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sausage and cook, breaking up into small pieces, until no longer pink, 7–8 minutes.
- Add the celery, onion, and garlic. Season with salt and cook until the vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes.
- Add the cornbread stuffing and toss to combine. Pour the boiling water and melted butter over the stuffing mix.
- Remove the pan from the heat, cover, and let sit for 5 minutes, until all of the liquid is absorbed. Fluff with a fork, then transfer to a small casserole dish.
- Turn the broiler to high.
- Broil the dressing for 1–2 minutes, until browned and crispy on top.
- Enjoy!
