"I created this recipe when I was trying to put something together for dinner. It was so good. My kids couldn't stop saying "mmmm" all through dinner!"

We really enjoyed this variation on a classic marsala sauce. The horseradish didn't come through as a distinguishable flavour, but it cut the sweetness of the marsala nicely. That, along with the salty capers put this a cut above a basic marsala sauce. Very tasty! Thanks yogamom! Made for PAC Spring 2008.
