Instructions

• In a medium saucepan over medium-high heat on the stove, warm 2 tablespoons oil. Add the onion and cook until soft, 4 to 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the garlic and oregano and cook until the garlic is light brown, about 1 minute, stirring occasionally. Add the tomatoes with the juice and the chile. Season with the sugar, ½ teaspoon salt, and ¼ teaspoon pepper. Bring the sauce to a boil, and then lower the heat to a simmer. Cook for 30 to 40 minutes, stirring occasionally and crushing the tomatoes with the back of a large spoon as they soften. Carefully pour the sauce into a food processor. Puree and return to the pan. Keep warm over low heat.

Turn the fillets over and continue cooking them to your desired doneness, 2 to 3 minutes more for medium rare. Slip a spatula between the skin and flesh, and transfer the fillets to serving plates.
