instruction
To an extra-large hot skillet, add olive oil, chopped green peppers, and onions, and sauté for five to seven minutes over medium heat. Then, add five minced garlic cloves. Cook until golden brown. Once browned, add the ground chuck. Remove the meat’s oil. Stir to distribute all of the spices and seasonings into the browned ground chuck. Stir in the diced tomatoes and crushed tomatoes. Stir in the tomato sauce last. Reduce heat and simmer for an hour.
For the Spaghetti
In a big saucepan, boil spaghetti for seven to eight minutes. Add one tablespoon of olive oil to the water. This helps the spaghetti separate. Drain the water, then top the spaghetti with sauce and serve.
