Ingredients
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 onion thinly sliced
- 2 red bell peppers cored, seeded and sliced
- 2 yellow bell peppers cored, seeded and sliced
- 2 Orange Bell Peppers cored, seeded and sliced
- 2 teaspoons garlic minced
- 4 plum tomatoes fresh or canned (San Marzano), seeded and diced
- 2 prigs fresh basil plus more for garnish
- salt and pepper to taste
- 1 teaspoon granulated sugar
Instructions
- Heat the olive oil and butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add the onion and cook for 4-5 minutes or until just softened.
- Add the red, yellow and orange bell peppers. Cook for 6-8 minutes or until tender.
- Add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds. Stir in the tomatoes, basil, salt, pepper and sugar.
- Reduce the heat to medium low and bring the mixture to a simmer. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the peppers are very soft and the tomatoes have broken down to form a sauce. If the mixture seems dry as it cooks you can add a tablespoon of water as needed.
- Remove the basil sprigs and discard. Let cool slightly, then taste and add more salt and pepper if desired. Serve, garnished with additional basil.
