Tahini Rosé Sauce Pizza

Ingredients

• 3 Tbsp olive oil

• ½ yellow onion, finely diced

• 6 cloves garlic, peeled and minced

• 2 ½ cups chopped tomatoes

• 1 Tbsp dried basil (or a handful fresh chopped)

• ½ cup white or rosé wine (divided)

• ¾ tsp sea salt

• ¼ cup tahini

• 1 pizza crust (a store-bought, gluten-free one in our case)

• Optional toppings: fresh basil, prosciutto

Let's get Cooking...

• Heat olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Sauté onions for 4 minutes, stirring occasionally until caramelized. Add garlic and sauté for another 2 minutes, until tender.

• Add ½ cup of the tomatoes and the basil and cook, stirring frequently, for 2 minutes.

• Add ¼ cup of wine, increase heat to high, and cook for about 2-3 minutes, or until liquid is almost completely reduced.

• Add remainder of the tomatoes and the sea salt, and cook over high heat for 4 minutes, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat to medium, and simmer for 10 minutes. Do not stir.

• Add tahini and remainder of wine. Stir until well-blended. Reduce heat to low. Simmer a final 5 minutes.

• Make it into pizza! Preheat oven to 475ºF. Spread sauce atop your favorite gluten-free pizza crust, and add your favorite toppings. Bake until edges are browned and cheese is bubbly and browned on top.
