Ancho Chile Tomato Sauce

Chili powder adds smoky depth and a kick of spice to this tomato-based, 30-minute sauce recipe.

Ingredients
  • 2-1/4 lb. tomatoes (5 to 6)
  • 2 Tbsp. olive oil
  • 1/2 cup finely chopped onion
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 Tbsp. ancho chile powder
  • 1/4 cup snipped fresh basil or cilantro
  • 3/4 tsp. salt
Directions
  • Core tomatoes and cut in half; squeeze out and discard seeds. Cut tomatoes in chunks. One-third at a time, place tomato chunks in food processor bowl or blender container. Process with several on/off turns; tomatoes should remain chunky. Transfer to medium bowl. You should have about 3-1/4 cups tomatoes. Set aside.
  • In a medium saucepan, heat oil over medium heat. Add onion; cook and stir until tender but not brown (3 minutes). Stir in garlic and chile powder; cook and stir for 1 minute. Stir in tomatoes. Bring to boiling; reduce heat. Simmer gently, uncovered, about 15 minutes or until sauce is thickened. Stir in basil and salt; heat through. Makes 3 cups.
  • TEST KITCHEN TIP: Double the recipe and make several batches of sauce to store. Cover and refrigerate up to 1 week, or freeze up to 3 months.
