Serving suggestions

This dish goes well with rice, green vegetables and roasted root vegetables.
When roasting vegetables you can skim the clarified butter from the marsala sauce (best done once cooled) for an extra decadent meal.

The onion and sherry can be doubled to make more sauce, with ~50% more butter.
