How to Make Steph's Creamy Tomato Parmesan Sauce

  1. Melt 2 tablespoons of butter and 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add 1/2 cup chopped onion and 2 cloves minced garlic. Sauté for 5 minutes, until softened.
  2. Stir in 1/4 cup dry white wine and cook for 1 minute, allowing the alcohol to evaporate.
  3. Add 28 ounces (one 28-ounce can) of crushed tomatoes, 1 cup of heavy cream (half and half), 1 teaspoon dried oregano, 1/2 teaspoon dried basil, and salt and pepper to taste.
  4. Bring to a gentle simmer, reduce heat to low, and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently, until slightly thickened.
  5. Stir in 1 cup frozen peas and 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese. Simmer for another 3-5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the sauce is creamy.
  6. Serve immediately over your favorite pasta, topped with extra Parmesan cheese and fresh basil (optional).
