There were some beautiful flavours in this dish, between the worcestershire and mustard in the coating, the bacon and parmesan in the crumbs, and the basil in the sauce. Unfortunately, the sauce didn't seem to want to thicken. It's possible that it was all my fault, as I tend to "eyeball" rather than carefully measure ingredients! Made for Newest Zaar Tag.
