Ingredients
- ¼ cup olive oil
- 1 red bell pepper sliced into strips
- 1 green bell pepper sliced into strips
- 1 yellow onion sliced, medium
- 6 cloves garlic minced
- 3 tomato chopped (peeled, if desired - for canned, use 15 ounce canned diced, medium
- 1 tablespoon piment d’Espelette use paprika as a substitute
- 1 teaspoon sugar optional
- 1 teaspoon thyme dried
- 1 bay leaf
- salt to taste
- black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Heat the oil in a large pan to medium heat. Add the peppers and onion with a bit of salt to taste. Cook for 5 minutes to soften, stirring a bit.
- Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute, or until the garlic becomes fragrant.
- Add the tomatoes, piment d’Espelette (or paprika), sugar, dried thyme, bay leaf, and salt and pepper to taste.
- Stir, then reduce heat to medium-low. Cover and simmer for 20 minutes, or until the peppers soften up to your preference. Simmer longer for a “saucier” sauce.
Notes
- Add fresh chopped herbs for a flavorful addition before simmering, such as thyme, basil, or oregano. Try a splash of white wine vinegar or red wine vinegar before serving for an acidic flavor pop. Serve the sauce as-is, or chop or blend it for a more sauce-like consistency, if desired.
