Ingredients:  
1 Tbs. olive oil
1 small onion, diced
3 cloves garlic, minced
3 Tbs. chili powder
1 Tbs. cumin
1 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. oregano
1-15 oz. can tomato sauce
1 c. chicken stock
Directions:
Directions:
Heat oil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add diced onion and cook until just browned, about 5 minutes. Stir in garlic, chili powder, cumin, salt and oregano and cook for about 30 seconds, stirring constantly. Sauteing your spices for a few seconds will give your sauce a fuller flavor. Add in the tomato sauce and chicken stock. Bring mixture to a simmer and cook for approximately 8 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Remove from heat, and strain mixture through a fine mesh strainer, pressing on the onion to extract the sauce. If I am making enchiladas or something similar, I'll add the reserved onions to my filling. You may discard the onion if you wish.
