What?! Panettone in stuffing?

I know, I know---it's a cake, it's sweet. But we like sweet and tangy cranberry sauce with roast turkey or chicken so why not a hint of sweet in the stuffing?

Panettone, which is loaded with plump raisins and candied orange peel, adds just the perfect sweet notes. You'll love how quickly this stuffing comes together. In less than 20 minutes you'll have a gourmet side dish that's great with chicken or turkey.
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 large onion, minced
2-3 stalks celery, minced
1/2 pound ground sweet or hot sausage meat or ground pork
1/4 cup raw or dried cranberries
1/2 cup white wine
1 Panettone, about 1 pound, such as Bauli or Motta, cut into 1-inch chunks and toasted*
1 cup chicken stock
1 teaspoon poultry seasoning (or 1/4 teaspoon each dry ground sage, thyme, parsley and marjoram)
Salt and pepper
In a large skillet add the oil and onions and cook over medium heat until golden, about 6 minutes. Add the celery and ground sausage, cranberries, and wine and cook until the meat is no longer pink.

Toss in the panettone cubes, chicken stock and herbs. Cook until warm, about 2 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
*Toast the Panettone chunks in a 350 degree F oven until golden, about 10 minutes.
