Tomato Black Olive And Chickpea Stew With Fresh Shiitakes Recipes

Steps:

• Heat a skillet over high, then coat with olive oil. Add garlic and cook until fragrant. Add chickpeas and a pinch of red-pepper flakes; cook until chickpeas begin to brown and pop, about 3 minutes. Stir in diced tomatoes and their liquid, 1/4 cup water, and olives and simmer 1 minute; season with salt. Brush bread slices with oil and season. Spoon chickpea mixture on bread and drizzle with oil. You can top this off with tuna or sardines for an extra hit of protein.

Steps:

• Using dutch oven or other enameled cast-iron pot, heat over medium heat and add olive oil.
• When oil is fragrant, reduced heat to medium-low and cook onions until translucent but not golden.
• Add garlic and mushrooms and stir until soft and partially cooked, about 3 minutes.
• Add wine and cook another 3-4 minutes, stirring to prevent sticking.
• Add tomatoes, chickpeas, capers, olives, oregano, salt and pepper.
• Cook 15 minutes more, or until heated through.
• Set aside, covered, until ready to serve.

Steps:

• In a large glass or stainless-steel bowl, combine the tomatoes, olives, feta, capers, parsley, salt, and pepper.
• In a large pot of boiling, salted water, cook the spaghetti until just done, about 12 minutes. Drain.
• Meanwhile, in a medium frying pan, heat the olive oil over moderately low heat. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add the cooked pasta and the garlic oil to the tomato mixture and toss.

Steps:

• Turn on the sauté setting on a 6- to 8-quart electric pressure cooker. Add 1 tablespoon olive oil, then add the onion. Cook, stirring occasionally, until translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in the sun-dried tomatoes and their oil, garlic and smoked paprika, and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 3 minutes. Stir in the chickpeas and their liquid, roasted red peppers and canned tomatoes. Cook, stirring and scraping the bottom of the pot to make sure nothing is sticking, until fragrant and combined, about 1 minute. Stir in the vinegar, 1 teaspoon salt and several grinds of pepper.
• Turn off the sauté setting. Put the lid on the pressure cooker and turn the steam valve to sealed. Set to cook on high pressure for 5 minutes. After the cook time, turn off the heat and let the pressure reduce naturally for 10 minutes, then release the remaining pressure manually by twisting the steam valve to vent.
• Taste the stew, and add additional salt, pepper or vinegar, if you like. Serve the stew in bowls, topped with a drizzle of olive oil, red-pepper flakes and smoked almonds.

Steps:

• Rinse and drain olives; you can pit them or not, whichever you prefer. 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 and thyme. Cook over medium heat, stirring often, 3 to 4 minutes. Add tomatoes, cook over medium heat until juices thicken a bit and flavors are combined, 5 to 8 minutes. Season to taste with pepper. Just before serving, stir in the parsley.
