This was a very good recipe, but where is the liquid to come from? After working in flour, had a paste and then the liquid form canned tomatoes and pepper sauce not enough to think of a 'boil'. Had to add some chicken broth and wine to make it less gooey. Very tasty and worthy of another try.1Reply
