Briny Olive Tapenade

Prep Time 10 minutes
Total Time 10 minutes
Servings: 10 servings

Ingredients
  

  • 1 1/2 cups pitted kalamata olives
  • 1/2 cup pitted green olives
  • 2 tablespoons capers drained
  • 3 cloves garlic roughly chopped
  • 2 anchovy fillets optional but recommended
  • 1/4 cup fresh parsley leaves
  • 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Method
 

  1. Combine kalamata olives, green olives, capers, garlic, anchovy fillets, and parsley in a food processor.
  2. Pulse in short bursts 8-10 times until the mixture is coarsely chopped but not pureed—you want texture.
  3. Add olive oil, lemon juice, and black pepper, then pulse just 2-3 more times to combine.
  4. Transfer to a bowl, cover, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow flavors to meld together.
