CUT BACK ON THE SALT Only rating it five stars because I think most people will read the comments and notice that there is way too much salt in this recipe for most tastes. I used one teaspoon and the salt was still noticeable but not enough to interfere with the dish. And I even used a tomato paste (Contadina) that had much less salt than others (Hunts, store brand). I had top sirloin, so I used that and it turned out very tender and tasty. I only had a little over a pound of meat, but I left the liquids all the same and put some carrots (added with the liquids) and cauliflower (added near the end) in.

Warm from the oven, neither I nor my fiancee liked them. The next day, though, we found they were much better. A great chewy brownie that's hard to match in texture. Like other reviewers noted, they need more chocolate. Good recipe as a starting point but not a keeper as written.

Cooked a four drumsticks along with four large boneless skinless breasts. The drumsticks were definitely much better. Next time I'm only going to go with bone-in chicken.
