Wine Sauce:
- Pour reserved liquid into saucepan. Blend 1/4 cup cold water slowly into 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour; stir into liquid. Cook and stir until thickened and bubbly. Season to taste.
- ****I usually double the ingredients to make the wine sauce (only because I have a family of 6) and it makes just enough to spoon over everybody's meal. You should get just about 3 cups of liquid when it is done cooking.
- Spoon some sauce over meat; pass remaining sauce.

I made this per the recipe and it was in serious need of seasoning. I ended up adding quite a bit more salt, pepper, garlic powder, and some Beau Monde seasoning. While the meat was very tender it was also very dry. (My daughter took one bite of the meat and decided to stick to just eating the gravy over the rice.)
