Marinated Olives

Method

Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a medium bowl, combine the olive oil, smashed garlic, rosemary, thyme, red pepper flakes, lemon zest, and black peppercorns. Mix well.

  2. 2

    Combine Olives

    Add the mixed olives to the marinade and toss to ensure all olives are well coated.

  3. 3

    Marinate

    Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or transfer the olives to a jar with a lid. Let them marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Remove the olives from the fridge and let them come to room temperature before serving. Adjust salt to taste if needed.
