Heat a large dry pan, add the fennel seeds and cook for 1-2 mins until fragrant. Add the citrus zests, bay leaves, rosemary and chillies, then cook for 30 secs more. Tip in the olives and add the olive oil. Mix well and cook for 1-2 mins, then turn off the heat and leave to cool in the pan before serving.
