Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 30m

Yield about 3 1/2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 medium onion, diced
3 cloves garlic, chopped
3 1/2 cups whole, peeled, canned tomatoes in puree (about 1 (28-ounce) can), chopped or crushed by hand
Fresh thyme sprig
Fresh basil sprig
3 plum tomatoes, chopped (optional)
2 teaspoons kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the onion and garlic, and cook stirring, until lightly browned, about 3 minutes. Add the tomatoes, their juice, and bring to a boil. Adjust the heat to maintain a simmer, and cook covered, for 10 minutes. Add the herbs and chopped fresh tomatoes, if using, and simmer for a few more minutes until fresh tomatoes are cooked through.
  • Remove and discard the herb sprigs. Stir in the salt and season with pepper, to taste. Use now, store covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, or freeze for up to 2 months.
  • Cook's note: For more texture add seeded chopped tomatoes at the end. Also add fresh chopped herbs for a fuller herb flavor.
  • Serving Suggestions: Serve this sauce over a pound dry pasta; linguini, fettuccine, spaghetti or fusilli, or, polenta, egg dishes, shellfish, or use for stews or braises. This sauce, when cooked a little longer and slightly thicker (around 2 cups), is also ideal for spreading on pizza.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, ripe tomatoes: This will give your sauce the best flavor. If you can't find fresh tomatoes, you can use canned tomatoes, but be sure to choose a brand that uses high-quality tomatoes.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: If you add too many tomatoes to the pan at once, they won't cook evenly. Cook the tomatoes in batches if necessary.
  • Simmer the sauce for at least 30 minutes: This will allow the flavors to develop and deepen. The longer you simmer the sauce, the better it will taste.
  • Add fresh herbs and spices: This will give your sauce a boost of flavor. Some good options include basil, oregano, thyme, garlic, and red pepper flakes.
  • Season the sauce to taste: Add salt, pepper, and any other seasonings you like until the sauce tastes perfect.

Conclusion:

This quick marinara sauce is a delicious and versatile sauce that can be used on a variety of dishes. It's perfect for pasta, pizza, chicken, fish, and vegetables. It's also a great way to use up leftover tomatoes. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give this marinara sauce a try.
