  5. In a small saucepan, sauté 1/2 cup chopped onion and 1/2 cup chopped celery in 2 tablespoons olive oil over medium heat until softened (about 5 minutes).
  6. Add 1 cup ketchup, 1/2 cup brown sugar, 1/4 cup lemon juice, 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce, and 1/4 cup water to the saucepan.
  7. Bring to a simmer and cook for 1 minute, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened.
