Best 3 Baked Spaghetti Sauce Recipes

BAKED SPAGHETTI SQUASH WITH HERB-BUTTER SAUCE

Steps:

• Squash: Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Starting at the stem, cut squash in half lengthwise. Remove seeds.
• Place the squash halves cut side down in a roasting pan. Add the water. Cover with foil.
• Bake squash for about 1 hour or until fork tender. Remove from oven and keep covered.
• In a pan or microwave safe glass bowl, combine the butter and broth. Heat until hot and butter is melted.
• Stir in the parsley and oregano.
• Use a fork to shred the spaghetti squash into strands. Transfer squash to a serving bowl. Add the herb-butter sauce. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

SKILLET-BAKED SPAGHETTI WITH MEAT SAUCE

Steps:

• Boil water. Add spaghetti & cook until just pliable (very al dente). Drain & set aside.
• Adjust oven rack to upper-middle position and heat broiler. Cook beef and sausage in large oven-safe nonstick skillet over medium heat, breaking up meat with wooden spoon, until no longer pink. Drain meat and pour off fat from skillet.
• Return meat to skillet and add garlic, pepper flakes and oregano and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
• Stir in tomatoes, spaghetti, water and salt. Reduce heat to medium-low and continue to simmer, covered about 7 minutes.
• Stir in cream, basil and 1/3cup cheese. Sprinkle with remaining cheese and broil until surface is spotty brown, about 3 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes.

BAKED SPAGHETTI SAUCE

Steps:

• Fry the pancetta and rosemary in olive oil until golden. Add the onion and garlic and cook for 3 minutes.
• Add beef, cook for 3 minutes, then add the wine. Reduce slightly, then add oregano, tomatoes, sundried tomatoes and tomato paste.
• Add salt & pepper to taste and bring to the boil, cover and cook for 1 - 1 ½ hours in a moderate oven. (I usually cover this with a piece of baking paper - right on the surface of the sauce).
• Serve over spaghetti with grated parmesan cheese.
