This was good and was certainly easy to make. The taste of the sherry is pretty pronounced, which was fine for us because we used a good one. I wished the taste of the Dijon had come through a little more. All in all this is a nice dish. Thanks!

I am a retired nurse. My husband and I live on an island in Florida and also have a house in Mississippi. We are active traders in the stockmarket. We also have a beautiful new RV and love seeing the good ole USA. Wish we had more time to travel but stay busier now that we are retired than we did when we worked. I love to cook and experiment with recipes. My husband loves to taste and recommend little changes. Life is good.
