Number Of Ingredients 8

12 ounce(s) mixed nonmarinated olives
1/2 teaspoon(s) fennel seeds
1 - large garlic clove, peeled and halved lengthwise
1 pinch(es) hot chile flakes
1 - 3-inch-long strip orange peel
3 sprig(s) fresh thyme
1 - extra-virgin olive oil
1 - loaf ciabatta bread, sliced

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 375 degrees. Combine the olives, fennel seeds, garlic, chile flakes, orange peel and thyme in a small ovenproof baking dish just large enough to hold all the ingredients.
  • Add enough olive oil to the dish to come within 1 inch of the top of the baking dish. Cover dish with foil and bake until the olives are hot and the olive oil is bubbly, about 45 minutes.
  • During the last 15 minutes, wrap the bread in foil and add it to the oven to warm. Serve the hot olives with crusty bread on the side.
