Ingredients

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • Cut focaccia into cubes; toast lightly if very soft. Add to a large mixing bowl.
  • Heat olive oil in a skillet; cook hot Italian sausage until browned.
  • Add pepperoni and cook 2–3 minutes more until edges crisp. Transfer both to the bowl with bread.
  • In the same skillet, sauté onions and celery until softened, about 5–6 minutes.
  • Add garlic and cook 1 minute.
  • Stir in red peppers, sun-dried tomatoes, and pepperoncini. Add thyme, sage, oregano, salt, pepper, and optional red pepper flakes.
  • Add the vegetable mixture to the bread mixture and toss lightly.
  • Add mozzarella and gently combine.
  • Whisk warm chicken broth with beaten eggs; pour evenly over stuffing. Toss until everything is moistened (add a splash more broth if needed).
  • Transfer mixture to a greased 9×13 baking dish.
  • Cover with foil and bake 30 minutes.
  • Uncover and bake another 15–20 minutes until golden brown on top.
  • Let rest 5 minutes before serving.
