- Pour in the white wine and bring to a simmer, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan.
- Stir in the diced tomatoes (undrained), parsley, oregano, lemon juice, and red pepper flakes (if using). Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened slightly.
- Serve immediately over pasta or with crusty bread for dipping. Enjoy!
