Tomato Vodka Sauce

Everything tastes great with heavy cream!

1 Tbs. Butter
1 Tbs. olive oil
1 onion, chopped
1 (28 oz.) can peeled and diced tomatoes
1 C. heavy whipping cream
1/4 C. vodka (I add a bit more)
1/4 tsp. crushed red pepper flakes
Salt and pepper to taste

In a large skillet over medium heat, melt butter with the oil. Add the onion and saute for 8 minutes or until transparent. Add tomatoes and cook for 25 minutes or until there is almost no liquid left in the skillet; stir frequently. Increase the heat and add cream, vodka, and pepper flakes; boil for 2 minutes or until thickened to a sauce consistency. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
