I think this is great, but had a little trouble with my roux....guess it was a little too high of a heat so I needed more liquid. I added a touch more marsala then water. It overwhelmed or watered down the Chanterelle taste (I'm not sure which) too much making what should have been a great sauce into a good sauce. I served this over pan-seared lamb tenderloin, which paired with it very well.<br/>I've made roux a number of times with mixed success (from recipes). I'd love to watch and question someone who knows the technique well. Even with my lack of technique and possible too high of heat, I wondered if there should be more liquid included in this recipe.<br/>I will try it again.

Sorry, no Chanterelles available at the moment, so we used ordinary mushrooms -- delicious anyway. Some younger family members found the wine flavor too strong, since alcohol was still evident when served, but the subtle undercurrent of caramelized shallot and garlic overshadows any shortcoming. Made for Photo Tag July 2008.

This was SO delicious! My DH went pheasant hunting last weekend and brough home two birds and a sack full of fresh chanterelle's he had picked. So I baked the birds in olive oil and salt and pepper and served them smothered in this sauce. It was TO DIE FOR! I added a little too much flour and it was more like a gravy then an actual sauce, but it was devine. I used European style butter so it was super rich and made up for the leaness of the wild bird. Will DEFINATELY make again!!!
