  1. A wonderful recipe! We cooked the entire thing on the stovetop, too lazy to clean two pans, and it still turned out beautifully. The Marsala sauce really makes this recipe. Thanks!!
     
  2. I can't believe how delicious this is. I added about 5 white button mushrooms to the saute pan when I was cooking the garlic and shallots. I agree, the sauce with the marsala definitely makes this. What a wonderful flavour. If I could give this a 10 I would. I'll be making this again, thanks so much for such a delicious recipe.
