For the stuffing:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F.

  • In a large bowl, combine the bread cubes, onion mixture, parsley, and fresh herbs.
  • Pour 1 cup of broth overtop and toss the cubes. Add the remaining broth, a little bit at a time until cubes are moist (but not soggy) and gently toss. You may not need all of the broth. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Place the bread mixture in a baking dish, dot with additional butter if desired, and cover.
  • Bake for 35 minutes, then uncover and bake for an additional 10 minutes.

Make the sweet potato casserole:

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a baking dish with nonstick spray.
  • Place sweet potatoes in a pot of boiling water. Simmer for 15 minutes or until fork tender.
  • Drain well and transfer to a food processor; puree until smooth.
  • Add butter, syrup, ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, and pepper; pulse to combine. Transfer to a prepared dish, top with marshmallows, and bake until golden brown on top, about 10 minutes.

Make the cranberry sauce:

  • Place the cranberries in a colander and rinse them if using fresh. Pick out and discard any damaged or bruised cranberries.
  • Add water and sugar in a medium saucepan on high heat and bring to a boil. Stir to dissolve the sugar.
  • Add the cranberries to the pot and return to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer for 10 minutes or until most of the cranberries have burst.
  • Remove the pot from heat. Let it cool completely at room temperature, then transfer to a bowl to chill in the refrigerator.
  • Make the chicken:
  • Pat the chicken dry with paper towels. Rub the outside with oil and season with rosemary, salt, and pepper. Massage the seasoning into the chicken. Place on a baking sheet.
  • Roast in the oven to a golden brown, crispy skin to an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C) using a thermometer. Then set aside to rest for 5 minutes. Then slice. Save half for tomorrows lunch.

Make the gravy:

  • Pour all of the drippings from the chicken into a saucepan.
  • Add the broth and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Once simmering, slowly stir in the flour/water mixture. Let it simmer until the liquid thickens into a smooth, thick gravy.
  • Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper if needed (add more flour/water mix to the gravy if needed to thicken more).
