Didn't like the lemon peel in it and husband though too lemony. When I made the leftovers, I strained out the lemon peel, added garlic, red caynenne pepper, oregeno and mixed with a little mashed potatoes to thicken the gravy. Served over mashed potatoes and it was really good and hubby liked it. - 10/24/07
