For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of sugar to balance the acidity of the tomatoes. Garnish with fresh parsley or basil for a pop of color and freshness. To make it spicier, add more red pepper flakes or a pinch of cayenne pepper. If you don't have sun-dried tomatoes in oil, you can use regular sun-dried tomatoes. Rehydrate them in hot water for 10 minutes before chopping and adding them to the skillet.

Pour in the vegetable broth and lemon juice. Bring the mixture to a simmer, then cover the skillet and let it cook for 10 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together. If the mixture appears too thick, add a splash more broth.
