These marinated olives combine manzanilla, black, and kalamata olives with chopped garlic, red pepper flakes, fresh basil, olive oil, salt, pepper, and a splash of red wine vinegar. A simple and delicious appetizer that gets even better with time.
Combine the manzanilla, black, and kalamata olives in a jar. Add chopped garlic, red pepper flakes, fresh basil, salt, pepper, and a splash of red wine vinegar. Pour enough olive oil over the mixture to cover the olives completely. Seal the jar, shake it well to combine all ingredients, and tuck it back into the fridge to marinate for at least 12 hours, preferably 1-2 days for best flavor.
