  1. Heat ½ cup of olive oil in a pan, over medium heat. Add the crushed garlic, capers, and chilli with the oregano. Stir for 1-2 minutes and reduce heat to low. Cook until aromatic. Remove this oil mixture from the heat. Using a vegetable peeler, cut the lemon rind into thin strips. Juice the whole lemon.
