Drain off the accumulated liquid. Add the remaining ingredients, shake again to distribute. Refrigerate for several hours, or overnight, to allow flavors to permeate, shaking occasionally. Serve with toothpicks or small forks. The oil may solidify, but will quickly liquify at room temperature. The green color will fade after a day or so, but they’ll still be delicious.
