Ingredients

The following ingredients have 1 Servings
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/2 cup minced white onion
  • 2 cloves garlic (pressed through a garlic press)
  • 2 tablespoons minced sun-dried tomatoes (packed in olive oil)
  • 2 teaspoons dried oregano
  • 1½ teaspoon dried basil
  • 2 tablespoons white wine (like Sauvignon Blanc)
  • 1 (6 ounce) can tomato paste
  • 1/4 teaspoon sugar (optional)
  • 1 cup water
  • kosher salt (to taste)
  • black pepper (to taste)

Instruction

  • Heat a large 10-inch skillet over moderate heat. When hot add in olive oil, minced onion with a pinch of salt and sauté until soft.
  • Add in the garlic, and cook for 30 seconds.
  • Add in the minced sun-dried tomatoes, dried oregano and basil and stir, cooking for 1 minute. The oil and the heat of the pan will soften up the dried herbs.
  • Pour in the white wine and let that simmer until absorbed.
  • Add in the tomato paste, sugar and the cup of water and stir until combined. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer the sauce for 10 to 15 minutes before seasoning with kosher salt and black pepper.
