Aglio e Olio (Spaghetti with Olive Oil & Garlic) 🇬🇷

Sometimes keeping dishes simple allows the ingredients and key herbs to speak for themselves and brings out their best flavours 🤌

4 tbsp Peter’s 100% Pure Extra Virgin Olive Oil
5 cherry tomato
1 red pepper
3 garlic cloves
6 basil leaves
1 tbsp Greek oregano
1 stick rosemary
2 tbsp Greek feta cheese
1 lbs Spaghetti
Salt & Pepper

Bring a large pot of cold water to a boil over high heat, then salt it generously. Add the pasta and cook, stirring occasionally until al dente, tender but not mushy, about 8 minutes.

While the pasta cooks, combine the garlic, olive oil, red pepper, basil, rosemary, cherry tomato, oregano, and salt & pepper in a large skillet and warm over low heat, stirring occasionally, until the garlic softens and turns golden, about 8 minutes.

Drain the pasta in a colander set in the sink, reserving about a 1/4 cup of the cooking water. Add the pasta and the reserved water to the garlic mixture. Mix well, then add feta cheese. Serve & Enjoy 👨🏻‍🍳

A little 80s throwback for today 💫

Before we started packaging our famous Caesar & Greek salad dressings, Peter was serving them at The Pizza Factory for customers to try a new salad experience that later became a staple of Peterborough 🥗

One thing that we pride ourselves in is that the olives we use are hand-picked and selected by Peter’s brother, Jimmy, on the family farm as well as his close neighbours 🇬🇷

Jimmy and his neighbours cold-press the oil and send it directly to us, and we do the rest to put together the highest quality extra virgin olive oil available on the market 🫒

Classic Chicken Marsala with Peter’s World-Famous Caesar Dressing 🇮🇹

Chicken:
* 1/2 cup all-purpose flour (plain flour)
* 1 teaspoon kosher salt
* 1 teaspoon garlic powder
* 1/2 teaspoon black cracked pepper
* 2 large boneless skinless chicken breasts, halved horizontally to make 4 fillets*
* 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, divided
* 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided
Marsala Sauce:
* 1 tablespoon unsalted butter as needed
* 8 ounces (250g) brown or Cremini mushrooms, sliced
* 4-5 cloves garlic, minced
* 3/4 cup dry Marsala wine
* 1 1/4 cup low-sodium chicken broth (or stock)
* 3/4 cup heavy cream (thickened cream, evaporated milk or half and half may also be used)**
* 2 tablespoons fresh chopped parsley
* 2 tablespoons Peter’s World-Famous Caesar Dressing

INSTRUCTIONS
Mix the flour, salt, garlic powder and pepper in a shallow bowl. Dredge the chicken in the flour mixture and shake off excess. Heat 1 tablespoon oil and 2 tablespoons butter in a 12-inch pan or skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Fry 2 of the chicken breasts until golden-brown on both sides (about 3 to 4 minutes per side). Transfer to warm plate, tent with foil and keep warm. Repeat the same with the remaining 2 chicken breasts. In the same pan with remaining pan grease leftover from the chicken, melt 1 tablespoon of butter. Add the mushrooms and for 2-3 minutes until browned, scraping away at any of the leftover chicken bits off the bottom of the pan. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Pour in the Marsala and the broth and simmer until reduced by half and starting to thicken, (about 10-15 minutes). Pour in the cream and return the chicken back into the sauce. Cook until the sauce thickens (about 3 minutes). Remove from heat and mix in Peter’s World-Famous Caesar Dressing. Garnish with chopped parsley and serve immediately. (The sauce will continue to thicken off the heat.) Serve over cooked angel hair pasta (or pasta of choice), rice, potatoes, cauliflower rice or zucchini noodles, if desired 🇮🇹

Top Sirloin steak with crispy garlic, rosemary and Peter’s 100% Pure Extra Virgin Olive Oil is an absolute go-to if you’re looking to change things up from turkey for this holiday season 🎄

Rinse steak thoroughly and set aside. Dry with paper towel and season both sides with generous amounts of flakey salt and freshly ground black pepper. Set pan heat to medium and cover pan surface with a thin layer of Peter’s Village Olive Oil. Place steak onto pan for about 3-5 mins for medium rare, flipping each side when a golden crust has been formed. Add a drizzle of red wine as well to intensify the flavours already present in your Top Sirloin steak 🥩

While the steak is cooking, chop 4 garlic cloves finely and place into pan, along with two sprigs of fresh rosemary 🧄

When steak is finished, set aside and allow it to rest before cutting. Pick rosemary leaves and place them on top of steak. Finally, allow garlic to get crispy in the pan until placing onto the rest of your dish. This provides a great contrast of textures between the tenderness of the steak and the crispness of the garlic 🍽

Cut into steak and enjoy 👨🏻‍🍳

Quality olive oil is the base to nearly any dish 🫒

When selecting your olive oil, make sure it’s 100% extra virgin and harvested from one specific area. With the majority of olive oil on the market being mixed with a variety from multiple regions, this can change the consistency and quality of the oil as climate and farming techniques may vary 🚜

That’s why we’re proud to be supplying you with Peter’s 100% Pure Extra Virgin Olive Oil, sourced directly from Peter’s home village of Koutsi in Greece and harvested by his brother, Jimmy. Jimmy has been working on the farm his whole life and is proud to bring his olive oil of the highest quality all the way from the family farm to you and your family 🇬🇷
