Sicilian Grilled Olives are mixed with a few simple ingredients and then cooked so that they are served warm. They make a lovely appetiser or antipasti and something a little different to serve at your upcoming summer BBQ’s.
- 75 g Fragata Manzanilla Olives Filled With Garlic (brine drained)
- 75 g Fragata Manzanilla Olives Filled With Anchovy (brine drained)
- 2 tbsp Dried oregano or mixed herbs
- 1 zest and juice of a lemon
- Sprinkle of cracked black pepper
- 2 tbsp Olive oil
- A drizzle of Fragata Extra Virgin Olive Oil
-
Preheat the grill to a medium setting and line a non-stick tray with parchment paper.
-
Mix all of the ingredients together except for the Fragata Extra Virgin Olive Oil.
-
Put the olives under the grill for 8-10 minutes, keeping an eye on them so that they don't burn. You will need to turn them during the cooking process to make sure they are evenly cooked.
-
Once the olives begin to soften and turn brown they are cooked.
-
Pour into a serving bowl and drizzle with a little extra virgin olive oil before serving.
Alternatively, you can cook the olives on the BBQ wrapped in some foil.
