Ingredients

• 8 strips center-cut bacon (ideally pepper-crusted smoked bacon), chopped
• 2 tbsp. olive oil
• 14.5 oz. can chopped tomatoes, any flavor, undrained
• 1 garlic clove, minced or grated
• 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes
• Sea salt and black pepper, to taste

Directions

1. Preheat an 8-inch skillet over medium-high heat for 1-2 minutes. Add the bacon and a little of the oil and cook, stirring, to brown the bits and render the far.

2. Add the tomatoes and cook, stirring, until warmed through, then add the garlic, red pepper, and the rest of the oil. Simmer for another minute, then remove from the heat.

3. Season with salt and pepper and cool before using. This will keep, tightly covered, in the fridge for up to 3 days.
