Lemon Basil Tapenade
- 1/4 cups Lemon-infused Olive Oil
- 1/2 cups Basil Marinated Green Olives
- 1 teaspoon Capers
- 2 whole Anchovy Fillets
- 1/2 teaspoons Sea Salt
- 1/4 teaspoons Ground Pepper
- 1/4 teaspoons Garlic, Minced
- 1/2 teaspoons Lemon Zest (Optional, See Note)
- 2 Tablespoons Basil Leaves, Minced (Optional, See Note)
- Notes: If lemon-infused olive oil is not available, substitute regular olive oil and add in 1/2 teaspoon lemon zest.
- If basil-marinated green olives are not available, substitute jarred green olives and add in 2 tablespoons minced fresh basil.
- In a food processor, combine all ingredients.
- Pulse until all ingredients are minced finely and almost paste-like, about five 2-second pulses.
- Scrape down sides and pulse again if necessary, to ensure all pieces are uniform in size.
- Serve immediately, or store in an airtight container for later use.
- Stir before serving to redistribute olive oil.
- Wonderful on sliced bread for an appetizer.
