Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 medium onion, finely chopped
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 3 26 1/2-ounce boxes vacuum-packed crushed tomatoes, or 10 cups canned crushed tomatoes
  • 5 1/4 cups Homemade Chicken Stock, or low-sodium store-bought chicken broth, skimmed of fat
  • 3 sprigs fresh oregano, plus more for garnish
  • 1/2 cup half-and-half
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Method

  • Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat. Add the onion and garlic, and cook, stirring, until translucent, about 8 minutes.
  • Add the tomatoes, stock, and oregano; cover, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, and simmer gently, un-covered, until thickened, about 45 minutes. Remove the oregano sprigs.
  • Slowly add the half-and-half, stirring constantly. Season with salt and pepper. Garnish with oregano. Serve hot.
