INGREDIENTS

INSTRUCTIONS

A good sauce doesn't have to be loaded with fat, just flavor. Today.s
recipe from Recipe-a-Day.com contains only 10-calories per tablespoon and
no fat, so ladle it on your beef, pork, poultry or fish and serve-up a
savory dinner tonight.
You can control the heat of the sauce by adjusting the chiles you utilize.
Leave the seeds in the sauce for a hotter burst of flavor or carefully
remove the seeds for a milder sauce.
Roast tomatoes over medium heat, turning until cooked in a heavy dry
skillet for about 5-minutes. Transfer tomatoes to a cutting surface and
cover with a kitchen towel to steam. When cooled, peal and chop coarsely.
Meanwhile, in the same skillet, toast chiles over medium heat until
fragrant, about 20 to 30-seconds. Set chiles aside and cut into several
pieces.
Heat oil in a heavy medium saucepan over medium heat. Add onion and
mushrooms and cook, stirring often, until tender (approximately 2 to
3-minutes). Add garlic and oregano and cook for 1-minute more. Add broth,
tomatoes and chiles and bring mixture to a boil. Reduce heat and cover,
simmer for 30-minutes.
Transfer sauce to blend or food processor and puree. Pass sauce through a
fine-meshed sieve and return to the saucepan. Heat thoroughly, stirring
occasionally. Season with lemon juice, sugar, salt and pepper. Prepared
sauce will refrigerate for 2-days or freeze for up to 6-months.
