Makes about 1 1/2 cups
When I want a chunky tomato sauce, I reach for sweet yet meaty cherry tomatoes.
INGREDIENTS
Heat the olive oil in a medium sauté pan on medium heat. Add the shallot and cook until tender, about 5 minutes. Add the tomatoes and cook, stirring occasionally, until they are just soft, 5 to 10 minutes.
Add a little chicken broth to help create a more sauce-like texture. Add the basil, oregano, and red pepper flakes and season with a little salt.
If using right away, reduce to a simmer and keep warm. Otherwise, you can refrigerate the tomatoes and reheat them when you’re ready to serve them.
