Ingredients

  1. 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into pieces, plus more for the baking dish
  2. 1 28-ounce can whole San Marzano tomatoes, drained, juice reserved
  3. 2 tablespoons packed dark brown sugar
  4. 4 cloves garlic, sliced

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Crush the tomatoes into the dish and add 1 cup of the reserved juice. Sprinkle with the brown sugar, garlic, parsley, tarragon, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon pepper and the red pepper flakes. 
  2. Cut the white and light green parts of the scallions into 2-to-3-inch pieces and add to the tomato mixture.

Uncover, increase the oven temperature to 450 degrees F and bake until the sauce is thickened, about 20 more minutes.

Pretty good recipe.I cut the brown sugar down to 1 tablespoon. I wish they’d suggest what to serve it with. I ate mine with whole grain bread but i can see it being eaten with pasta as well. It reminded me of Uzbek Lagman soup. I’d definitely make it again.
