Marinara Sauce, Spicy

EverydayCooked

Spicy marinara sauce is a tomato-based Italian-American sauce enhanced with chili peppers or red pepper flakes for a bold, piquant flavor. This cooked version typically combines simmered tomatoes, garlic, onions, and herbs like basil and oregano, offering a lower-calorie alternative to cream-based sauces while providing lycopene from tomatoes. Its versatility extends beyond pasta to pizza bases, meatball dishes, or as a dipping sauce, with many commercial varieties being naturally vegan and gluten-free.
