Garlic Roasted Olives
Adapted gently from and with thanks to The View from Great Island.
Ingredients
- 3 3/4 cups assorted good olives preferably pitted
- 1 whole lemon seeds removed, thinly sliced
- 1 fresh jalapeno pepper or, for lower spice levels, pierced several times and left whole, stem removed, thinly sliced
- 1 cup 1/4-inch cubes of feta cheese
- 4 cloves garlic peeled and minced or pressed through a garlic press
- 6 sprigs fresh thyme plus extra for garnish
- 1 tablespoon capers drained and rinsed
- 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- freshly ground black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F. Toss all of the ingredients together in a deep baking dish or pie plate. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until you hear sizzling in the baking dish and some of the feta cheese around the edges and on top has golden brown toasted areas. Some of the lemons may also have caramelized bits on them. Garnish with some fresh thyme leaves and serve immediately with crusty bread.
