Ingredients

• 2 Tbsp olive oil (Caramelized Garlic or Frantoia)

• 1/2 Onion minced (about 1/4 cup)

• 1 Tbsp Sweet Smoked Chili Rub

• 1 28 oz can Diced Tomatoes

• 1/3 cup Vodka

• 1/2 cup Heavy Ceam

• 1 lb Italian Pasta cooked al dente

Instructions

1. Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add onion and tomato paste and cook, stirring occasionally, until onions are softened, about 3 minutes.

2. Add sweet chili rub, stirring constantly, until fragrant, about 30 seconds

3. Stir in tomatoes and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Add vodka and simmer briskly on medium-high heat until alcohol flavor is cooked off, 8 to 10 minutes; stir occasionally.

4. Stir in cream and cook until hot, about 1 minute.
