📝 Preparation Steps
1
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease a 9x13 inch casserole dish (or 9x9 inch for thicker stuffing) with nonstick spray and set aside. In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground Italian chicken sausage for about five minutes to render some fat and begin browning.
2
Add the diced yellow onion and celery to the skillet with the sausage. Sprinkle in the minced fresh rosemary, sage, and thyme. Cook, stirring occasionally, for about ten minutes until the sausage is cooked through and the vegetables are soft and tender.

3
Stir in the dried cranberries and chicken stock. Continue to cook over medium heat for a few minutes, just until the stock is warmed through. This helps the stuffing mix absorb the liquid evenly.
4
Turn off the heat. Pour the entire bag of herbed stuffing mix into the skillet. Use a large spoon or spatula to thoroughly stir everything together, ensuring all dry bread pieces are coated with liquid and mixed with the sausage and vegetables. Transfer the mixture into your prepared casserole dish and spread it out evenly.

Cover the casserole dish with foil and bake in the preheated oven for ⏱️ 30 minutes. Carefully remove the foil and return the dish to the oven for another ⏱️ 10 minutes uncovered, allowing the top to become golden brown and slightly crispy. Serve hot.
