Ingredients
- 2 tsp olive oil
- 1 small onion, (chopped)
- 1 tsp minced garlic ((about 2 cloves))
- 1 14.5-ounce can diced tomatoes
- 1 6-ounce can tomato paste
- 1+1/2 cup chicken stock
- 1 tbsp chopped fresh basil
- 1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
- 1/2 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
- 1/2 tsp kosher salt (plus more to taste)
Instructions
- 1
Heat olive oil in a medium pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the onions and saute for 3 minutes. Add the garlic and saute for 30 seconds.
- 2
Reduce heat to medium and add the diced tomatoes, tomato paste, chicken stock, basil, parsley, red pepper flakes and salt. Simmer until reduced slightly, about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- 3
Use an immersion blender (or regular blender) to blend the sauce to your desired consistency. I like my sauce fairly blended, but I know some others like it chunky.

Taste and season with more salt, if needed. Serve immediately or let it cool down completely before placing it in an airtight container to store in the refrigerator.
