Tips:

  • Choose firm, ripe olives for wrapping. Overly soft olives will break apart during the cooking process.
  • Use a variety of olives to create a more flavorful appetizer. For example, try using a combination of Kalamata, green, and Castelvetrano olives.
  • Wrap the olives tightly with bacon. This will help to keep them from falling apart during cooking and will also ensure that the bacon is evenly cooked.
  • Use toothpicks or small skewers to secure the bacon-wrapped olives. This will help to keep them in place during cooking and will also make them easier to serve.
  • Cook the bacon-wrapped olives over medium heat. This will help to prevent the bacon from burning and will also allow the olives to cook through evenly.
  • Serve the bacon-wrapped olives immediately. They are best enjoyed when they are hot and crispy.

Bacon-wrapped olives are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. They are also a great way to use up leftover bacon.
