Ingredients

Topping

  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • ½ cup kalamata olives pitted
  • ½ cup black olives
  • 1 TB capers
  • 3 TB parsley fresh
  • 1 TB lemon juice fresh
  • 1 TB oil mild flavor
  • ¼ teaspoon pepper

Polenta

  • 1 tube of premade polenta

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350 degrees, lightly grease a cookie sheet, and set aside.
  • Take a cutting board and add your olives, capers, and parsley; cut into tiny pieces. Take a small bowl and add your lemon juice, oil, pepper, minced and minced garlic, and stir. Now add the chopped-up ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir. Set aside.
  • Take your roll of polenta and cut it into desired shapes. I cut mine into about half-inch circles and then cut the circles into fours. Place evenly on the cookie sheet and bake for 15 minutes; flip and then bake for another 10-15 minutes.
  • Take the cooled polenta pieces and place a ½ tsp- 1 teaspoon depending on the size of your polenta bites of the olive mixture on top and serve.
