  2. Add 1/2 cup heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer. Reduce heat to low.
  3. Remove from heat. Stir in 1/2 cup pitted green olives, roughly chopped, and let cool slightly (about 2 minutes).
  4. Season to taste with fresh lemon juice (about 1/2 teaspoon), freshly ground black pepper, and/or red pepper flakes (to your preference).
  5. For a smoother sauce, blend or puree using an immersion blender or in a regular blender until desired consistency is reached.
