Ingredients:
- 1 small red chili pepper (fresh , any variety , choose your spice level to meet your own tolerances)
Directions:
- Heat the oil in a large, heavy-bottomed skillet over medium-high heat and add the finely diced onion and black pepper. Saute until the onions start to brown. This will take about 5-8 minutes, depending on your stovetop's heat.
- Lower the heat to medium (about half what it was while browning the onions) and add the basil, minced garlic, chili pepper, and salt. Saute for about 4-5 minutes until the garlic starts to brown, just a bit, around the edges.
- Add the tomato, stir everything together, lower the heat to medium-low, and cover the skillet with a tight-fitting lid. Covered, simmer the tomatoes for 15 minutes, stirring once, after 7-8 minutes, to keep from sticking.
- Remove the lid and stir the tomatoes. Simmer and stir occasionally (to prevent scorching), uncovered, until the watery liquids are evaporated or absorbed. This will take about another15 minutes.
- Remove from the heat and either serve right away with pasta or put the sauce in your blender to create a smooth puree.
