Ingredients

4 servings
  • 9 ounces refrigerated cheese tortellini
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil (divided)
  • ½ cup diced onion
  • 4 cloves garlic (minced)
  • ½ teaspoon dried basil
  • ½ teaspoon dried oregano
  • ⅓ cup water
  • ¼ cup chicken broth
  • 14 ounces canned diced tomatoes (with juices, 1 can)
  • 1 teaspoon granulated sugar
  • grated Parmesan cheese (for garnish, optional)

Steps
