ROASTED HALIBUT WITH LEMONS, OLIVES AND ROSEMARY

Steps:

• Heat oven to 450 degrees. Place fish in a baking dish, brush fillets with 1 teaspoon of oil and season with salt and chile pepper. Top each fillet with a rosemary branch and several slices of lemon. Drizzle remaining oil over lemon slices and sprinkle with additional salt. Scatter olives over fish and pan.
• Bake until just opaque, about 10 minutes. If lemon slices have not browned or singed (this will depend on how thinly you slice them), place pan under broiler for 1 to 2 minutes. Serve drizzled with more olive oil; sprinkle with more salt and chili, if desired.

EASY MARINATED OLIVES WITH ROSEMARY, GARLIC & LEMON

Steps:

• Layer the olives, garlic, herbs, bay leaf, lemon rind, & chili flake in a 16-ounce jar (or 16-ounce airtight container of choice). Slowly pour the olive oil over top, just until the olives are submerged. Depending on the size of your olives, you may or may not need the full cup of olive oil.
• Set the sealed jar in the refrigerator for at least 48 hours, or up to 1 week.
• 2 hours before serving, remove the olives from the refrigerator to bring them to room temperature. Transfer to your favorite serving bowl. Enjoy them on their own, or serve along with crackers, charcuterie, or on a holiday cheese board. Enjoy!

LEMON-ROSEMARY-MARINATED RIPE OLIVES

Steps:

• In a 1-quart glass jar with a tight-fitting lid combine the sliced lemon, the lemon juice, the shallots, the rosemary, and the red pepper flakes. In a saucepan of boiling water blanch the olives for 1 minute, drain them well in a colander, and add them to the jar while they are still warm. Add enough oil to the jar to just cover the olives. Seal the jar with the lid and shake it several times to combine and distribute the ingredients. Let the olives stand in a cool, dark place, shaking them daily, for 3 days. The olives keep, covered and chilled, indefinitely.

ROSEMARY-LEMON OLIVES

Steps:

• Heat all ingredients in a saucepan over medium heat until warm, about 2-3 minutes.
• Remove from heat and let olives cool.
• Let marinate at room temperature for at least 1 hour before serving.
• ***Can refrigerate olives for up to 2 weeks in an airtight container.

LEMON ROSEMARY OLIVE OIL CAKE

Steps:

• Begin by preheating the oven to 350F degrees. Grease your baking pan of choice and coat with a light dusting of flour to ensure the cake can easily be removed from the pan.
• In a large bowl, combine the eggs, 1/4 cup lemon juice, zest, rosemary, vanilla, yogurt and granulated sugar, whisking until the mixture is light and smooth, about 1 -2 minutes.
• In a separate bowl, thoroughly combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt, and using a wooden spoon, fold into the wet ingredients, stirring until mixed together.
• Pour the batter into the baking pan and bake for about 45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the middle of the cake comes out clean.
• Remove the cake from the oven and let cool in the pan for 10 minutes before removing the cake from the pan. Let the cake cool completely on a cooling rack and then prepare the icing: Whisk 1 - 2 tbsp lemon juice into 1 cup of powdered sugar, adding more juice or sugar if necessary. When desired consistency is reached, drizzle over the cake and let set before serving.

ROSEMARY MARINATED OLIVES

Steps:

• Combine the olives, lemon zest, rosemary, and thyme in an attractive jar that has a cover. Bury the garlic clove in the center, add the oil, stir, cover, and refrigerate until you need it, up to several weeks. Give the mixture another stir now and then to blend. And try other flavors: herbs such as tarragon, other citrus peels, chilis, seasoned oils-whatever you like.
