Step 2: Make the Arrabbiata Sauce

1. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
2. Add the sliced garlic and sauté for 1–2 minutes, stirring frequently, until golden but not burnt.
3. Stir in the red pepper flakes and cook for an additional 30 seconds to release their heat.
4. Pour in the crushed tomatoes, oregano, and water (if needed to thin the sauce). Simmer for 10–15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens slightly.
