I was visiting my father one afternoon when unexpected guests stopped by for a game of futbol. He turned to me and said, “Quick, make me an appetizer, chef!” There was nothing remotely exciting in the fridge and the pantry appeared to be just as hopeless, until I noticed a jar of jalapeño-stuffed olives. Stuffed with cheese, breaded, and panfried, these little guys disappeared before anything else I made was given a second glance. They are great with an ice-cold cerveza and store-bought tartar sauce for dipping.
