Marinated Olives Ingredients

Method

Marinated Olives Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Olives

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the mixed olives. Ensure that they are pitted for easy consumption.

  2. 2

    Make the Marinade

    In a separate bowl, whisk together the extra virgin olive oil, crushed garlic cloves, lemon zest, red pepper flakes, and black peppercorns until well combined.

  3. 3

    Add Fresh Herbs

    Add the fresh rosemary and thyme sprigs into the marinade mixture, allowing the flavors to infuse.

  4. 4

    Combine and Season

    Pour the marinade over the olives in the mixing bowl. Toss the olives gently to ensure they are evenly coated with the marinade. Season with salt to taste.

  5. 5

    Marinate

    Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or transfer the olives and marinade to an airtight container. Let the olives marinate in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, ideally overnight, to allow the flavors to meld.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Remove the olives from the refrigerator before serving. They can be served at room temperature. Enjoy the marinated olives as a snack, appetizer, or part of a charcuterie board.
