Delicious! I made a couple of changes, using double the amount of mushrooms (baby bellas) and an equal amount of sweet onion. Also, I used chardonnay rather than marsala wine, just personal preference. Next time I will reduce the sodium, because even the reduced-sodium broth had quite a bit of salt. This is definitely a keeper, perfect for a quick, healthy week-night meal. Thanks Jessi :)
