Damaris Phillips’ Rosemary and Orange Marinated Olives
This assembly-only snack is the perfect party make-ahead!
- 1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
- Zest and juice of 1 orange
- 1 clove garlic, peeled
- 1 sprig rosemary, stem removed or 1/2 teaspoon ground rosemary
- 1/2 to 1 teaspoons chili flakes (optional)
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 16-ounce jar mixed olives in water with pits
In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine the olive oil, orange juice and zest, garlic clove, rosemary, chili flakes and salt, and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Cook for 1-2 minutes to allow the spices and herbs to soften; set aside.
Drain the olives and add them to the warm olive oil mixture. Let sit for at least 15 minutes to soak up the flavors.
