Time 25m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 3-ounce link hot Italian sausage, casing removed
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons grated parmesan cheese
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
20 large pitted green olives
3/4 cup breadcrumbs
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
Vegetable oil, for frying

Steps:

  • Mix the sausage with 2 tablespoons parmesan and the parsley in a bowl.
  • Cut open the olives (do not fully cut in half). Stuff with the sausage mixture and press closed (it's OK if the olives don't close completely).
  • Mix the breadcrumbs with the remaining 1/4 cup parmesan. Dredge the olives in the flour, dip in the beaten eggs, then dredge in the breadcrumb mixture.
  • Working in batches, deep-fry the olives in 350˚ vegetable oil until golden, 4 minutes; drain on paper towels.
