A great recipe, but I must say: salt is required, at some point. I'd salt the meat when I pepper it for sure. I'd probably add a little salt to the gravy, too. Also, I used three medium onions (on the largeish side) and it was definitely onion overload, so I'd probably use two next time. Of course, that is all a matter of personal taste. Otherwise, great recipe, and I appreciate you sharing it! :)

This was delicious, as promised. My variations on the recipe -- I marinated the meat for about 8 hours in advance in a mixture that would work for beef -- I included some crused garlic and dried rosemary in the marinade. Marinating overnight would probably be even better. I discarded the marinade before cooking the meat. During the cooking process I added dried rosemary to the skillet. My husband and I enjoyed the results. Thanks!
