Another great dish from ~Rita~! I wouldn't have thought these ingredients would come together so nicely...absolutely delicious. Only change is I made it with one very large ham slice (steak). Came out great...thanks again ~Rita~.

    Really good! I wasn't expecting much, but was looking for some different Irish dish, and this one really suprised me and my wife. The stock I used was beer and bullion. I added some salt and pepper to taste. Came out a tad salty but we liked it that way. I probably added some garlic too as usual and I used maybe two shots of whiskey (JWR) near the end so it didn't cook out the alchohol bite I love. Delish! Side dishes were sauteed fresh spinach with mushroom, red onion, cream, country dijon, and garlic. Also new baby red potatoes with fresh parsley and parmesan. Enjoy with a nice stout. THANK YOU!

    This is really good!! The sauce was a little sweet but not too sweet. The whiskey enhanced the sauce. I used canned chicken broth for the liquid. After I added the whiskey to the sauce, I let it cook for a few minutes to cook some of the alcohol out of it. It made the sauce taste even better. If you don't cook with alcohol, the sauce is good without it too. I tasted the sace as it was cooking and before adding the whiskey and it was good!! I will be making this again.
