Grilled Spicy Olives Recipes

GRILLED SPANISH-STYLE SNAPPER WITH TOMATO AND GREEN OLIVE SALSA

Steps:

• Preheat grill pan or indoor electric grill to medium high heat. Drizzle snapper with extra-virgin olive oil. Combine spices in a small bowl. Rub fish with spice mixture. Cook fish 5 minutes skin side down first. Turn fish and cook 5 to 6 minutes longer.
• Combine salsa ingredients in a small bowl and allow it to marinate until ready to serve.
• To serve, plate spiced snapper with a generous serving of salsa. Sangria makes a wonderful beverage for this meal.

SPICY ROASTED OLIVES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300 degrees F.
• In a small roasting pan, mix together the olives, rosemary, chile, and garlic. Slice the tangerines in half and squeeze the juice over the olives; toss in the rinds. Pour over the olive oil and vinegar and give it a good stir. Cover with foil and bake for about 1 hour. Serve warm or at room temperature.

GRILLED PIZZA WITH SPICY HUMMUS, VEGETABLES, GOAT CHEESE AND BLACK OLIVES

Steps:

• For the hummus:
• Place chickpeas, garlic, cayenne pepper, lemon juice, honey and tahini in the bowl of a food processor and process until smooth. With the machine running, slowly add the olive oil until emulsified. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
• For the pizza:
• Heat the grill to high. Brush both sides of the pizzas with oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill until golden brown on both sides, about 2 minutes per side.
• Top each pizza with the spicy hummus. Arrange any or all of the veggies on top of the hummus and top with the goat cheese. Season with salt, pepper and ancho powder. Place the bread back on the grill, close the cover and grill for 5 minutes to heat through. Remove and add black olives and fresh basil.
• In a large bowl stir together 1/3 cup water, yeast, and sugar and let stand until foamy, about 10 minutes. Stir in remaining 1/3 cup water, 2 tablespoons oil, 1 3/4 cups flour, cornmeal, and salt and blend until the mixture forms a dough. Knead dough on a floured surface, incorporating as much of remaining 1/4 cup flour, as necessary, to prevent dough from sticking, until smooth about 5 to 10 minutes. Form the dough into a ball.
• Lightly oil the sides and bottom of a large bowl with oil, add the dough, turn to coat in the oil, cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 hour. Gently punch the dough down and divide into 4 equal pieces. Roll each piece on a lightly floured surface into a 10-inch circle that is 1/8-inch thick. Brush off excess flour and transfer the dough to a baking sheet, cover each circle of dough with plastic wrap and continue stacking rolled out pieces on top of each other. Wrap well with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to grill.

SPICY HERB MARINATED GRILLED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Puree cumin, coriander, peppercorn and cardamom in a blender until very fine. Add parsley, mint, oregano, garlic, fresno, salt, vinegar and ¼ cup oil and puree until a thick pesto like paste forms. Place chicken in a large resealable plastic bag and pour in marinade. Seal bag, pressing out any air. Chill at least 3 hours and up to 24.
• Prepare a grill for medium-high, indirect heat (for a charcoal grill, bank coals on one side of grill; for a gas grill, leave one or two burners off). Thoroughly clean grates and brush with oil. Set chickens, skin side up, on grate over indirect heat. Cover grill, placing cover vent (if your grill has one) over chickens so it draws heat up and over them. Grill, rotating chickens as needed so that they color evenly, until skins are lightly browned, 15-20 minutes.
• Turn chickens and continue to cook, covered, until skins are deep golden brown and crisp and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of breasts registers 160°, 20-25 minutes. Transfer chickens to a cutting board and let rest at least 10 minutes before carving.
• Mix olives, lemon juice, chopped parsley, remaining ¼ cup oil, and any accumulated juices from chicken on the cutting board in a medium bowl. Season with salt.
• To serve, arrange carved chickens on a platter and top with olive mixture and parsley leaves.

GRILLED SPICY GARLIC SHRIMP

Steps:

• Prepare brining solution and brine shrimp for 20-25 minutes -- remove shrimp feet and devein with shells left on (this isn't absolutely necessary but it does seem to result in moister grilled shrimp), rinse and dry.
• Using mortar& pestle smash garlic and salt into a smooth paste.
• Add cayenne and paprika and mix well.
• Add olive oil and lemon to form a thin paste.
• (NOTE: Make sure the paste isn't too loose or it will not cling to the shrimp.) Toss shrimp with paste until evenly coated.
• (This mixture can be covered and refrigerated for up to an hour before grilling).
• Grill until shells are bright pink- 2-3 minutes per side.
