Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 cup thinly-sliced onion
2 green bell peppers, cut into strips
1 pound tomatoes, peeled and roughly chopped
2 teaspoons chopped garlic
2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil
Salt and pepper

Fried bread croutons, for serving

Steps:

  • Heat olive oil in a large saute pan and cook onion until softened and beginning to turn golden. Add peppers and cook 15 minutes, until tender. Add tomatoes, garlic, basil and season to taste with salt and pepper. Simmer until tomatoes are pulpy.
