Ingredients
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 (28-ounce can) crushed tomatoes
- 1 small onion finely diced (approx 1 cup)
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh basil chopped
Instructions
- Heat the oil in a medium-sized pot on medium-high heat. Add the onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes until translucent. Add the garlic and sauté for 30 seconds more.
- Add the can of crushed tomatoes, salt and thyme. (Don't add the basil as it will overcook). Once the tomatoes have started to boil, reduce the heat to a simmer. Simmer for 20-25 minutes or until the sauce has slightly thickened.
- Remove the sauce from the heat, stir in the basil and enjoy.
Notes
- This recipe makes approximately 4 cups of marinara sauce.
