Prep Time:9 minutes
Cook Time:2 days

Ingredients

  • 4 cups mixed olives, of your choice
  • 1 tbsp fresh thyme leaves
  • 6 sprigs fresh rosemary
  • 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
  • 1/2 lemon zest from, cut into very thin slivers
  • 4 cloves garlic, cut into slivers
  • 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
  • freshly ground pepper, to taste

Instructions

  • In a bowl, combine all ingredients and mix well. Cover and refrigerate for 1-2 days, giving it a stir a couple of times. Olives should be set-out at least 30 minutes before serving. Or, better yet -- add olives to a small decorative skillet and gently warm for about 15-20 minutes before serving. Set skillet on a cutting board with crostini, cheese and/or nuts around it for an easy, delicious hors d'oeuvre!
