Bland? No WAY! Get your taste buds fixed. I made the recipe as written except for omitting the red pepper flakes and substituting a couple light dashes of cayenne. I used white wine (Sauvignon Blanc). The blend of flavors is wonderful! This is such a versatile recipe. By all means, if you like your food HOT, HOT, HOT, add more pepper flakes. Me? I like to taste my food and not hide the flavors under an excessive amount of heat. Well worth 5 stars as written . . . and then some! Try with beef and dry red wine. YUM!!!
