  1. ME REVIEW:

    This recipe is a winner for sure! I made it for 12 people on Christmas Eve and everyone raved! The only change I would make is to reduce the amount of wine. I used one cup and it ended up being to much liquid in the bottom of the dish. I used a slotted spoon while dishing it out, so no one except me realized it. I will definately make this again using only 1/4 cup of wine.
