This was fantastic! Very, very easy to make absolutely delicious. I couldn't believe there is only 1 teaspoon of olive oil and only 2 tablespoons of flour. It doesn't have to be perfectly coated because whatever comes off during braising flavors and thickens the broth. Just divine. And the gravy... ohhhh!!! Next time will add mushrooms like another reviewer said. Can't wait for our leftovers tomorrow night! Definitely a keeper!
