Directions
Step 1
Rinse the anchovy fillets under cold water to remove any excess salt and pat them dry with a paper towel.

Cut each anchovy fillet in half lengthwise, creating 24 anchovy strips.

In a small bowl, mix extra virgin olive oil, fresh lemon juice, finely chopped parsley, and ground black pepper.

Drizzle the olive oil mixture over the stuffed olives, making sure each olive is well-coated.
Step 7
Transfer the olives to a serving dish and let them marinate for at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator to enhance the flavors.
