Tapesto (?)

Makes ¾ cup sauce, somewhere between a tapenade and a pesto, hence the name. Good on fish.

  • 12 kalamata olives
  • ¼ c. Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • ¼ bunch of parsley
  • 1.5 tsp capers
  • 1 tsp good balsamic vinegar
  • .75 ounce package of fresh basil
  • Zest of ¼ lemon

Add all ingredients except basil and lemon zest to a food processor. Process till coarsely chopped. Add basil and lemon zest, and continue processing until the consistency of a tapenade; you should still be able to identify the different ingredients, but they should be very finely chopped.

Serve with seared fish, such as tuna (with cumin).
