5 garlic cloves, chopped
1 large shallot, chopped
3 ounces of diced Prosciutto
1/8 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1-28 ounce can of crushed tomatoes
1-14 ounce can of diced tomatoes
1/2 cup Vodka (doesn't matter what brand)
1/2 cup half and half (I used fat free half and half)
1/4 cup fresh basil, washed and chopped
In a large pot heat on low the butter, after a minute add the shallots and garlic, let that cook for about 3 minutes until it gets soft then add the prosciutto and red pepper flakes and let that all come together for another couple of minutes. Then add the vodka and let that mix in and then add the tomatoes. After that has cooked for another couple of minutes sprinkle in some salt and pepper and cook covered for about 25 minutes on low. Then add the half and half and mix well after a couple of minutes add the fresh basil. Cook on low for another 10 minutes to just make sure all the flavors have marinated together.
Serve on top of your favorite pasta (we used penne) and sprinkle with a little Parmesan cheese if you like.
Enjoy!!!!
