Directions

In the bowl of a food processor fitted with the steel blade attachment, add everything except the olives and olive oil. Pulse until the mixture forms a chunky paste.


Toss the olives in the marinade, and cover with the olive oil. Serve immediately, or place in a glass jar, marinate, and store in the refrigerator for up to 1 month.
