This is my mother’s recipe given down through generations. This recipe can be used for any poultry, including Turkey. The chicken liver is optional, for me it brings back memories to my Bavarian and Franconian roots
I remember my childhood, I would get up early on Sunday morning and my mother would put some cooked “Fülle” Stuffing to the side for me to eat before the chicken is filled
chicken liver, minced meat, butter, rolls, lemon, onion, herbs, spices 
Fry hamburger meat, chicken liver, onions and parsley 
Soak stale rolls in warm milk 
Squeeze out the liquid and add the bread to the pan 
Combine and stir, add an egg and some butter, turn down the heat 
Stuff chicken/turkey, or just bake and serve on the side 
Chicken should be done after 1.5 hours, internal temp. about 170F 
Carve chicken with poultry shears through the middle 
Chicken stuffing can be baked and served on the side
