Veal
and chicken dishes made
with Marsala sauce are favorites of mine at restaurants. I almost never
shop for wine simply for the purpose of making a dish, but this might
be the exception. However, using some red wine from an already opened
bottle is not a bad compromise. Ideally I would serve this with
some bread, mashed potatoes, sauted greens, or glazed carrots for
total comfort meal. |
