Step 1

Add oil, onion and red bell pepper to a saucepan and cook until onion is translucent over medium heat. Add garlic - make sure to watch closely as minced garlic can burn easily and cooks quickly.

Step 2

Add tomato paste and cook an additional 1-3 minutes over medium-low heat.

Step 3

Add wine, tomato and the spicy powders of your choosing. Cook on high heat for 2 minutes, then reduce to a simmer for 5-8 minutes.

Step 4

If you don't like chunky tomatoes, this is your chance to remove and blend (that's what we did) or remove from heat and use an immersion blender to get it blended down a bit. Once it's blended to your satisfaction, place it back in the saucepan or tur.

Step 5

Taste and add additional seasoning if desired (parsley, oregano, salt or basil).

Step 6

Decide how creamy you want your sauce to be and stir in the cream. Let it cook on low for 3-5 minutes.

Step 7

Serve with your favorite pasta, maybe add a meat, and enjoy!
