SPICY VODKA SAUCE

SPICY VODKA SAUCE

 INGREDIENTS: 1/4 cup olive oil, 2 tbs butter, 1 head chopped garlic, 1 large chopped shallot, 1 cup chopped mushrooms, 28 ounce can of crushed tomatoes, 1 cup chicken stock, 1 cup vodka, 1 cup heavy cream, 1 tbs basil, crushed red pepper, and parsley, 2 tbs chili garlic sauce

Garnish: Fresh basil

Cook the garlic & shallot in the butter and oil for 5 minutes, add the mushrooms and cook for another 5 minutes. Add everything else and simmer on a low heat for an hour. 

After an hour, I put meatballs in it and let them cook for another hour. I put the meatballs and sauce over steamed broccoli. My family ate it over fresh tortellini's. If you don't like it too spicy, skip the chili garlic sauce.
