Fantastic spicy sauce! I will definitely use this recipe again. I used additional tomato paste than what is specified, and no lemon juice. Next time I may follow the exact recipe.

Very good, quick and easy. One of the first sauces I have made that didn't come out too watery. The only things I would change are to add less red pepper flakes (I like spicy but I thought it masked the other good flavors in the sauce), and I would use maybe half the sugar. It was a little too sweet. But otherwise, a great sauce.

My wife and I are very impressed. We both like Arrabbiata sauce. This version seems to linger on your taste buds with a scrumptious sweet heat that totally delights the senses. In my next attempt at this recipe, I will add a bit more wine and tomato paste, and include a dash of salt. I believe this will improve it somewhat.

This is one terrific sauce. I adjusted the seasonings, used crushed tomatos and skipped the sugar. Thank you Ellen!

What a terrific pasta sauce! We added browned ground turkey for a little more substance, but it would have just as wonderful without. Agree with the others, crushed tomatoes and fresh herbs are the way to go. Thank you very much for this recipe!

Very good. Tasted just like the Mom & Pop Italian resturant sauce that I like so much.

This has become one of my old stand-bys. I made this meal for my boyfriend and he was very impressed. I think the wine adds a sophisticated flavor. I was very pleased because the overall affect was a chunky sauce with a cohesive flavor- not just chunks of tomato with bits of other stuff mixed in. Very yummy.

I loved this sauce! I added red bell pepper, extra garlic, extra italian seasoning, and extra basil. It turned out fantastic! I also used whole wheat penne pasta. Yum will make again for my sister who is a vegetarian. Thanks so much!

Wonderful, spicy sauce! Will make again and again. I added whipping cream and it became a delicious tomato cream sauce, but it is wonderful without the cream as well.

This dish is very, very yummy! It had the right amount of spiciness (I don't like SUPER spicy dishes). The fresh basil and parsley makes a HUGE difference (you MUST use fresh). I subbed crushed tomatoes (in my opinion it just tastes better with crushed - or a mixture of crushed / petite diced). Top servings of pasta with crumbled feta or goat cheese (yum!). If you want, omit the red pepper flakes alltogether for a more basic marinara sauce. The sauce pairs well with penne and warm bread (I like Pepperidge Farm's rosemary olive oil bread served with a little olive oil for dipping). Yummy!!!

This was okay. I did add marinated chicken, marinated artichokes & mushrooms--maybe it would've been better w/out those things? I probably won't try this one again.

This was good. I think it would be better with crushed tomatoes instead of diced. I didn't have any fresh herbs, but it still tasted fine (just not quite as fresh/flavorful). I used whole wheat penne and added black olives, green and red bell peppers, and mild italian sausage. My husband loved this, and said it was similar to one of his favorites at a local restaurant.

My husband will give this 5 stars he loves it so much. I serve it over pasta and or even green beans sometime. It is a little spicy for me which is why only the 4 stars but still it is very good.

amazing sauce with a definite bite to it! i made this for my parents with garlic cheese bread and a salad for dinner one night and they loved it. i gave my mom the recipe and she made it using a different wine and it didn't turn out nearly as well. Make sure you use a nice italian wine for it. I always use Chianti Ruffino, which is also great to have a glass of while cooking!
