Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 12

Coarse salt and ground pepper
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 medium onion, chopped
1 garlic clove, minced
1/2 pound ground pork
1/2 pound ground beef chuck
1 cup dry white wine
1 can (28 ounces) whole peeled tomatoes in juice, chopped
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon red-pepper flakes
18 ounces fresh fettuccine
Grated Parmesan, for serving (optional)

Steps:

Set a large pot of salted water to boil. In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high. Add onion and garlic; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until onion softens, 3 to 4 minutes. Add pork and beef; cook, breaking meat up with a spoon, until no longer pink, 2 to 3 minutes. Add wine; cook until evaporated, about 7 minutes. Add tomatoes, oregano, and red-pepper flakes; cook until sauce is slightly thickened, 2 to 3 minutes.
Cook pasta in boiling water until al dente, according to package instructions. Drain, and return to pot; add meat sauce, and toss to coat. Serve immediately, topped with Parmesan, if desired.
