Olive

With flash-seared squid, tomatoes, olives, parsley, and a tangy lemon vinaigrette.

Add a heap of tortilla chips and this vegetarian dinner is done.

This adaptable Moroccan tagine can be as mild or as hot as you can handle. Serve with crusty bread to sop up all the braising juices.

Crisp, clear, and preferably ice cold, a vodka martini is anything and everything you want it to be.

This Puerto Rican pork stew—loaded with bright and briny flavors like fresh tomatoes and Manzanilla olives—can easily be a part of your weeknight meal rotation.

This rustic baked shrimp dish is almost prefab, thanks to overnight prep and quick, day-of cooking. Serve with plenty of bread for dipping.

This make-ahead Sicilian dish makes a great party appetizer, but you can also eat it all by yourself with a few slices of crusty bread.

The warmth and gentle smoke of the campfire transforms these marinated olives into the stone fruit they are—juicy, savory, and deliriously fresh.

Crisp, thinly sliced fennel ribbons (which have a licorice-like flavor) meet juicy orange wedges and briny olives in this fresh side.

Just mix everything together for this braised chicken dish and put it in the oven, and about an hour later, you have a fragrant, tangy dinner.

This zesty pasta sauce has everything—tomatoes, peppers, green olives, capers, and a little pancetta. Serve with fusilli lunghi, the long spirals of pasta.

Here we give you chargrilled flavor, minus the grill; deeply browning the broccoli in a cast-iron skillet instead. 

Chicken thighs are always delicious, but the briny olives and browned shallots turn these green beans into the star of the show.

For a gluten-free alternative to pasta, this boldly flavored sauce is spooned over cauliflower.

Build a sauce bulked up with jarred red peppers and green olives, then toss it with pasta and lots of mozzarella cheese that goes crisp on top and cheesy-pully in the middle in the oven.

Truly a one-pot wonder, this dish is homey, comforting, and weeknight-friendly (thanks to the minimal cleanup). Rinse your rice until the water runs clear before adding to keep the grains from going clumpy or gummy in the pot.

Inspired by Moroccan tagine, this vegan holiday centerpiece is stuffed with dried fruit, hearty barley, and fragrant spices.
