Ingredients

1 orange
1 lemon
3 tablespoons olive oil
20 sage leaves
20 rosemary leaves
1 small clove garlic (unpeeled)
1 pound mixed olives, such as black Niçoise and green Castelvetrano

Use a vegetable peeler to cut 5 or 6 wide strips of zest (total) from the orange and lemon. Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add the oil, sage, rosemary and garlic; cook for about 20 seconds or until the herbs stop sizzling. Turn off the heat. Stir in the olives, citrus zests and the crushed red pepper flakes, then transfer to a deep bowl. Use a Microplane grater to grate the remaining zest from the orange and lemon directly into the bowl. Stir to incorporate. Serve warm. Or cool, discard the garlic, cover and refrigerate.
