Smoked Oyster & Pecan Stuffing

Number of Servings: 
14
Ingredients: 
2 tablespoons canola oil
1 small onion, finely chopped (about ½ cup)
3 celery stalks, coarsely chopped (about 1 cup)
2 garlic cloves, minced
Two 3.75-ounce cans smoked oysters, drained
3 cups water or all natural chicken broth
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
¾ cup chopped toasted pecans
Chopped fresh parsley
One 16-ounce package Herb Seasoned Stuffing Mix
Instructions: 

Heat the oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the onions and cook, stirring frequently, about 3 minutes. Add the celery and cook until crisp-tender and the onion is translucent, about 3 more minutes. Add the garlic and oysters and cook 1 minute (you can break up the oysters a bit while stirring if you prefer smaller pieces). Add the water or broth and butter, raise the heat to high, and bring just to a boil. Remove from the heat, add the stuffing mix and pecans, and toss lightly with a fork. Garnish with parsley.
