Instructions
Instructions
Add olives, anchovy fillets, pine nuts, basil, parsley, capers, garlic, lemon zest, and salt into the food processor bowl.
Pulse several times until the mixture is coarsely chopped — not mushy.
With processor running, slowly drizzle in olive oil until it blends into a spreadable tapenade.
Taste and adjust seasoning with more salt or lemon zest if needed.
Serve immediately garnished with fresh basil or store in airtight container in fridge.
