Easy and excellent! I added some red wine.
Great recipe - I make a double batch so that I always have some in the freezer for other nights. I add more garlic, since we are serious garlic lovers here and use fresh basil from my hydroponic garden! If you don't have an herb garden - get one! They are awesome....and mine was under $75!
Quick, easy....I also added some red wine & used a bit more garlic to suit our taste. Freezes well & makes a great base to turn into other variations - puttanesca, vodka & palomino sauce to mix it up. Also great for mussels marinara!
