Preparation

Step 1

Rinse and drain olives (I buy them pitted). Combine tomatoes and salt in a medium bowl. Set aside. Heat olive oil in a medium skillet, add garlic and cook over medium-low heat until just starting to brown, 2 to 5 minutes.

Add olives. Cook over medium heat, stirring often until juices thicken a bit and flavors are combined, 5 to 8 minutes. Just before serving, stir in parsley.
