Great recipe, however, I tweaked it by adding Old Bay Seasoning.

After reading that this was a “bland” recipe and confirming the sauce itself was bland...we added the following: 1/2 dehydrated ghost pepper and 8 oz of sliced baby Bella mushrooms in with celery sauté Added 1-2 tablespoon of Maggie Sauce Used half portion of the recommended cayenne pepper At the end I added 1 tbsp extra creamy butter, 1/8 cup of red wine(blend) and 1/4 cup more chicken broth. **we used Cholula instead of Tabasco

Made this tonite. Very disappointed. Looked good but tasted bland. My husband thought something was missing, like sherry!
