Recipe Notes

No, seriously.  It’s that simple.  And because this wonderful, flavorful any-night-of-the-week dish also makes a delicious jus (cooking liquid), serving this with mashed potatoes or parsnips or cauliflower (or a combination thereof, which I love) is the perfect way to catch that extra flavor on the plate.

Of course, serving this alongside the rest of the bottle of red wine is just the responsible thing to do.  After all, leaving it to possibly go to waste would be alcohol abuse.  And we don’t do that, right?
