Instructions
- 1
Toast the nuts: heat a small skillet over medium heat. Add the mixed nuts, olive oil, smoked paprika, cayenne, and salt, stirring to coat. Cook, stirring frequently, until the nuts are fragrant and lightly golden, about 4–5 minutes. Watch closely, as they can brown quickly. Remove from heat, drizzle with maple syrup, toss to coat, and spread on a baking sheet to cool completely.

Marinate the olives: in a small bowl, combine the mixed olives with the extra-virgin olive oil, thyme leaves, red pepper flakes, and lemon zest. Stir to coat and let sit at room temperature while you prepare the rest of the board.
