Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Toast the pecans by tossing them over medium-high heat in a heavy, dry skillet or baking them in a toaster oven until golden brown. Do not allow them to burn. Remove from the pan and set aside.

  2. Step 2

    Heat the oil in a heavy saucepan. Add the onion and celery and saute over low heat until soft and just beginning to brown. Stir in the thyme, sage and rice. Add the pecans. Add the stock, bring to a boil and boil for two minutes. Lower heat, cover and cook until the liquid is absorbed, about 20 minutes. The rice will still be a little firm, but it will continue cooking when it is stuffed into the poultry.

  3. Step 3

    Season the mixture with parsley, lemon juice and salt and pepper. Set aside or refrigerate until ready to use to stuff the turkey. When stuffing, do not pack the mixture tightly because the rice will continue to expand.

I have fibromyalgia and now have become gluten intolerant so I will try this recipe for Christmas. But I cannot use the dried herbs because they probably have additives or preservatives in them and they cause me pain. Can I use fresh herbs and what would be the measurements?
