1. To make tomato sauce: To a large skillet set over medium heat, add oil. When oil is shimmering, add shallot and cook until

softened, about 3 minutes. Add the garlic and pepper flakes; cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in the tomatoes and thyme

and simmer until the sauce comes together and thickens, about 10 minutes. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.

Reduce heat to low, cover, and keep warm.
