Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 3/4 cup finely chopped yellow onions
  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic
  • 2 anchovy fillets, minced
  • 1/4 cup chopped pitted cured black olives, such as kalamata

  • One 16-ounce can crushed tomatoes
  • 1 tablespoon tomato paste
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro

Directions

  • Heat the olive oil in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the onions and garlic and cook, stirring, until soft, about 4 minutes. Add the anchovy fillets, olives, and crushed red pepper flakes and cook, stirring often, until the anchovies dissolve, about 2 minutes.
