Method
Preparation
Prepare the Chile Peppers
Begin by removing the stems and seeds from the dried chile peppers. This will help reduce the heat and enhance the flavor. Once cleaned, chop the peppers into small pieces.
Zest the Lemons
Using a microplane or zester, carefully zest the lemons to obtain 40 grams of lemon zest. Be sure to only zest the outer yellow layer, avoiding the bitter white pith.
Prepare the Olives
Pit the green olives if they are not already pitted. Then, slice them into halves or quarters, depending on your preference.
Cooking
Combine Ingredients
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the chopped chile peppers, lemon zest, and sliced olives. Mix well to ensure even distribution of flavors.
Season the Mixture
Add salt and black pepper to the mixture according to your taste preference. Drizzle the olive oil over the ingredients and toss everything together until well coated.
Let it Marinate
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and let the mixture marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes. This allows the flavors to meld together.
Serve
After marinating, the SIETE LEGUAS DECADAS is ready to be served. It can be enjoyed as a flavorful appetizer, or as a topping for grilled meats or vegetables.
