- Marinate and chill:
Seal the jars and refrigerate for at least 1–2 hours, or up to 24 hours. The longer it sits, the more the flavors meld. Let the jars sit at room temperature for 15 minutes before serving to allow the olive oil to loosen up. - Serve:
Serve with cocktail picks, mini forks, or simply spooned onto small plates. These jar bites pair wonderfully with crackers, crusty bread, or wine.
