A Delicious Recipe: Garlic Stuffed Olive Tapenade
To showcase the versatility and deliciousness of our olives, here's a simple yet flavorful recipe using our garlic stuffed olives.
Garlic Stuffed Olive Tapenade
1 cup Penna garlic stuffed olives, pitted
1/4 cup sun-dried tomatoes, packed in oil
2 tablespoons capers, drained
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)
1. Prepare the Ingredients:
Drain the garlic stuffed olives and remove the pits. If using sun-dried tomatoes packed in oil, drain them slightly but retain some oil for flavor.
2. Blend the Ingredients:
In a food processor, combine the pitted olives, sun-dried tomatoes, capers, minced garlic, and lemon juice. Pulse a few times to roughly chop the ingredients.
With the food processor running, slowly drizzle in the olive oil until the mixture reaches your desired consistency. You can make it smooth or leave it a bit chunky, depending on your preference.
Season with freshly ground black pepper to taste. You can also add a pinch of salt if needed, but the olives and capers usually provide enough saltiness.
Transfer the tapenade to a serving bowl. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley if desired. Serve with crusty bread, crackers, or as a topping for grilled meats and vegetables.
This garlic stuffed olive tapenade is a versatile addition to any meal. It can be used as a dip, spread, or topping, adding a burst of Mediterranean flavor to your dishes.
