How to Make Moroccan Spiced Green Olives
- In a medium skillet, heat 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 teaspoon ground cumin, 1 teaspoon ground coriander, 1/2 teaspoon turmeric, 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional), 2 cloves garlic (minced), 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro, and 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley over medium heat for 2 minutes, or until fragrant.
- Remove the skillet from the heat and add 2 cups pitted green olives.
- Gently toss the olives to coat them evenly with the spice mixture.
- Stir in 2 tablespoons lemon juice, 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
- Transfer the mixture to an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or up to 3 weeks. The longer they marinate, the better the flavor!
- Before serving, drain any excess liquid and allow the olives to come to room temperature for optimal enjoyment.
