Needless to say, there must be a million recipes for sauce, and a million bottled sauces you can use from the store. Well, here is our simple sauce to use. This is a chunky sauce that goes well with blobs of Ile de Paris herbed goat cheese, chicken and freshly chopped oregano or basil over the top. If you like a smooth sauce, use your stick blender to puree it.:
Ingredients
- 1 Tbsp Olive Oil
- 1/2 Onion, diced small
- 1 Clove Garlic, minced
- 1 (15-oz) Can Whole Tomatoes
- 1 Sprig fresh Oregano
- 1/2 tsp Sugar
- 1/2 tsp Kosher Salt
- 1/8 tsp fresh ground Pepper
Instructions
- Heat the oil in a 1-1/2 qt sauce pan. Cook the onion and garlic until softened and translucent, about 3 minutes. Stir as necessary. Add tomatoes, crushing lightly with your hands as you add them. Be sure to add the juice, too. Strip the leaves of oregano from the stem and then chop roughly. Add the oregano and the sugar. Let simmer, stirring occasionally for about 20-30 minutes, until thickened. Add salt and pepper to taste.
- Yeild: Enough sauce for 1 (12-inch) pizza.
