Ingredients

  • 12 - 24 green olives pitted
  • 12 anchovy fillets in oil drained
  • 12 mild pickled green peppers guindilla-style, drained and patted dry
  • Extra virgin olive oil for drizzling optional
  • 12 toothpicks or small skewers

Instructions

  • Prepare ingredients: Drain the olives, anchovies and peppers. Pat peppers dry so they grip the skewer.
  • Assemble the skewers: Thread an olive, fold an anchovy in half and add it, then a pickled pepper (whole or halved if long). Finish with another olive if you prefer a longer skewer.
  • Repeat: Continue assembling until you’ve used all ingredients. Arrange on a serving plate.
  • Optional finish: Drizzle lightly with extra virgin olive oil just before serving.
  • Serve: Enjoy immediately with cold drinks.
