Easy Marinara Sauce Recipe

The first time that I made Chicken Parmesan, the recipe said to use your "favorite marinara sauce recipe". I didn't have one. So, I went to the kitchen and invented one with the things that I had lying around. It turned out to be very tasty!

This sauce is great for dipping, or to top chicken.

	Marinara Sauce
	Ingredients: 3 small tomatoes, diced 1 (6 oz) can tomato sauce 2 cloves garlic, finely chopped 1/2 teaspoon salt pepper to taste sprinkle of Parsley Flakes Generous sprinkle of Italian Seasoning Tip: When I don't have fresh tomatoes, I substitute 1 (12 oz) can of diced tomatoes for the fresh tomatoes. You may also substitute the fresh garlic with a 1/4 teaspoon of garlic powder if you need to. Directions: Combine all of the ingredients in a sauce pan. Put on stove on med-hi and bring to a boil. Turn to low and simmer for 15 min. Tip: If the tomato skins bother you, you can remove them. The easiest way to do this is to blanch the tomatoes. Using a large ladle or spoon, simply, drop them into a pan of boiling water, let them sit for 30-60 seconds, and then drop the tomatoes into cold water. This will cook just the skin of the tomato and allow it to slip off easily. Recipe By: Damon Jentzsch
