This is delicious!!! I made this last night for dinner, although a very late dinner due to the site being down when I need the recipe, but at least I already had it marinating. My photo doesn't due this recipe justice, as I was in too much of hurry to eat. DH doesn't care for anything on his steak, so the sauce was just for my steak and I loved it. The only part I changed was to add sliced shallots with the mushrooms in the beginning, yumm!!! Thanks for sharing the recipe. Made for ZWT8.
