Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup (175 g / 6.2 oz) Spanish queen green olives, pitted
  • 1 cup (150 g / 5.3 oz) baby heirloom tomatoes
  • 0.5 cup (90 g / 3.17 oz) pitted Kalamata olives
  • 6 oz (170 g) marinated artichoke hearts, drained and quartered
  • 8 oz (225 g) marinated fresh mozzarella balls (ciliegine), drained
  • 4 oz (115 g) sliced salami
  • 0.5 cup (75 g / 2.65 oz) whole pepperoncini peppers
  • 12 wooden skewers (6-inch / 15cm)
  • Pat all marinated dry with a paper towel before threading. This prevents the skewers from becoming messy or soggy, especially if making them ahead of time.
  • For the best flavor, let the kebabs sit at room temperature for 20-30 minutes before serving. This allows the cheese and salami to lose their chill and taste richer.
  • Don't discard the marinade from the mozzarella or artichokes! Drizzle or brush a little of the seasoned oil over the skewers just before serving for extra flavor and a beautiful sheen.
  • To make the skewers more stable on a platter, place larger, heavier like artichoke hearts or tomatoes near the base to act as an anchor.

Method
 

  1. Drain the marinated mozzarella, artichoke hearts, olives, and pepperoncinis well to avoid soggy skewers.
  2. Fold each salami slice in half, then in half again to create a ruffled, easy-to-skewer shape.
  3. Thread the onto a skewer, alternating colors and textures. A great pattern is: green olive, salami, tomato, mozzarella ball, Kalamata olive, artichoke heart, and pepperoncini.
  4. Repeat the process until all 12 skewers are assembled.
  5. Arrange the finished Antipasto Kebabs on a platter.
  6. Serve immediately or cover and refrigerate for up to 24 hours.
