Herb Infused Black Olives
Ingredients
Directions
In a medium saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. When the oil is warm, add the olives, pepper flakes, thyme, and rosemary.
Remove the zest from the lemon in a few strips, avoiding the underlying bitter white pith, and add it to the pan. Carefully squeeze the juice from half the lemon (about 2 tablespoons) into the pan and cook until fragrant, about 1 minutes. Then add the wine, reduce the heat to low, cover, and cook until the olives are soft, about 20 minutes. Transfer to a plate and serve immediately.

We couldn't get enough of these herb-infused black olives. The olives take on incredible flavor from the rosemary, thyme, wine, and lemon. I served the olives as an hors d'oeuvre with chunks of Parmigiano-Reggiano and a lovely crusty baguette from Balthazar Bakery.
