You could also serve it on its own with crackers or bread, or offer it as a relish for grilled chicken or fish. It can be made with black olives as well as with green. Ingredients:
1 pound pitted brine-cured green olives, left whole or coarsely chopped |
2 cups chopped tomatoes |
1/3 cup olive oil |
2 tablespoons minced garlic |
1 tablespoon tomato paste |
1/2 cup water |
3 1/4-inch-thick lemon slices |
1 teaspoon paprika |
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper |
Directions:
1. Bring medium pot of water to boil. Add olives and bring to boil. Drain olives.
2. Combine tomatoes, oil, garlic and tomato paste in heavy small saucepan; bring to boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer 3 minutes. Add water, lemon, paprika, cayenne and olives. Boil until liquid is reduced to sauce consistency, stirring often, about 5 minutes. Transfer to bowl and cool. Chill until cold. (Can be prepared 3 days ahead. Cover and keep refrigerated.)
