MARINATED OLIVES WITH LEMON AND FRESH HERBS
Many grocery stores now carry bulk olives. I buy large bulk green olives, with pits, and dress them up with this flavor-packed marinade. It's a wonderful appetizer during the summer when fresh herbs are plentiful. Serve with wine and cheese for a wonderful summertime appetizer.

Steps:
- Combine oil, zest, rosemary and garlic in saucepan and cook 6 mins. Remove from heat. Stir in olives. Let stand 15 mins
Tips:
- Choose the right olives: Select firm, plump olives that are free of blemishes. Kalamata, Castelvetrano, and Niçoise olives are all good choices for this recipe.
- Use fresh herbs: Fresh rosemary and thyme add a wonderful flavor to the olives. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use 1 teaspoon of dried rosemary and 1/2 teaspoon of dried thyme.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the olives, make sure not to overcrowd the pan. This will prevent them from cooking evenly.
- Cook the olives over medium heat: Cooking the olives over medium heat will help to prevent them from burning.
- Serve warm: Warm olives are best served immediately. You can also store them in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
Conclusion:
This recipe for warm olives with rosemary, garlic, and lemon is a delicious and easy appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. The olives are flavorful and tender, and the herbs and lemon add a bright and refreshing flavor. This recipe is sure to be a hit with your guests!
