- *Note: This amount of chicken broth allowed for a very crispy top. If you prefer your stuffing softer, use enough chicken broth to just cover the top.
- Preheat the oven to 300 degrees. Place the bread cubes on a baking sheet, ensuring that they do not overlap. Bake for 7 minutes until dried out. Place in a large bowl and set aside.
- Turn the oven temperature up to 350.
- Meanwhile, in a large skillet, heat the butter over medium heat. When melted, add onion and cook until translucent and fragrant, about 3 â 5 minutes. Add in celery and let vegetables sweat an additional 2 minutes. Add in pears and continue to cook down for 1 more minute.
- Stir thyme, sage and parsley into the mix. Season the mixture as you would like with salt and pepper.
- Remove from heat and add mixture to bread in large bowl. Toss to coat evenly.
- Add in bacon and feta, continuing to toss for even distribution.
- Spray a 9 x 13 baking dish with cooking spray. Add bread mixture and pour 2 cups of chicken broth over entire mixture.
- Bake for 30 minutes.
