In Greek: φέτα σχάρας, pronounced FEH-tah SKHAH-rahs

Creativity is the word here. Feta cheese is so versatile and can be combined with many different herbs and vegetables. This is a basic recipe for grilled feta cheese.

Ingredients:

  • feta cheese, 1/2 inch slices
  • grated tomato
  • slices of pepper (hot or mild)
  • crushed Greek oregano (rigani)
  • olive oil

Preparation:

Wrap a slice of feta topped with chopped tomatoes, slices of hot or mild pepper, a sprinkling of Greek oregano, and a couple of drops of olive oil in foil and place on the grill next to your favorite meat, fish, or veggies.

This can also be roasted in the oven at 375F for 15-20 minutes or - without the foil - heated in the microwave on high for 1 minute.
