1/4 cup olive oil
8 garlic cloves, crushed
3 anchovy fillets, chopped
2 (15 ounce) cans Tuttorosso® Crushed Tomatoes Roasted Garlic
2 (14.5 ounce) cans Tuttorosso® Petite Diced Tomatoes
1/2 cup olives, pitted, plus 2 tablespoons Kalamata olive juice
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes, crushed
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
1/4 cup canola oil, or fry oil of choice
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup capers
sourdough bread
3 slices fresh mozzarella cheese, or 1/2 cup shredded
basil leaves, for topping
olive oil

Instructions

To make the Puttanesca sauce:
  • In a large skillet or Dutch oven, over medium heat, add oil.  Cook garlic and onion until fragrant, 1 minute.  Add anchovies and cook 1 minute.  Add Tuttorosso Crushed Tomatoes Roasted Garlic and Tuttorosso Petite Diced Tomatoes, olives and red pepper flakes.  Add in olive juice.  Let come to a simmer, stirring often, about 15-20 minutes.  Salt and pepper to taste. 
To make Fried Capers:
  • Meanwhile, add oil to a pan and let it heat.  Add flour to a bowl and drain capers.  Add capers to flour and coat evenly.  When the oil is hot, add capers.  Cook for about 3-5 minutes or until they start to brown and crisp.  Remove and place on a paper towel to remove excess oil.  
To make Grilled Cheese:
  • Add a thin layer of Puttanesca sauce to sour dough bread.  Add fried capers, mozzarella and a few sprigs of basil.  Add a piece of bread on top.  Add oil or butter to a pan and add sandwich.  Cook on medium heat for 3-5 minutes per side or until cheese is melted and bread is nicely browned.  
  • Remove and serve immediately.
