Greek Marinated Roasted Peppers Olives And Feta Recipes

Steps:

• Set oven control to broil. Place bell peppers on cookie sheet. Broil with tops about 5 inches from heat, turning occasionally, until skin is blistered and evenly browned. Place peppers in a plastic bag and close tightly. Let stand 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in tightly covered container, shake oil, lemon juice, parsley, onion, oregano and garlic.
• Remove skins, stems, seeds and membranes from peppers. Cut peppers into 1-inch pieces. In glass bowl or jar, place peppers, olives and cheese. Pour marinade over pepper mixture. To serve, use slotted spoon. Serve with baguette slices.

Steps:

• Combine the peppers, feta and olives in a large bowl.
• Add the olive oil and toss gently.
• Add the remaining ingredients and toss gently again.
• Adjust seasonings, cover and chill at least 5 hours before serving.
• Serve this with toasted pita bread as an appetizer.

Steps:

• Drizzle feta with olive oil and lemon juice. Sprinkle with oregano and pepper. Cover with plastic wrap and allow to stand at room temperature for 30 minutes, or marinate in the refrigerator overnight. Serve at room temperature.;
• Combine all ingredients in a heavy duty resealable bag (preferably freezer bag). Remove all air from bag prior to sealing. Refrigerate and let olives marinate overnight, turning once. Remove contents of bag to serving bowl.;

Steps:

• Cut the feta cheese into 2cm cubes and place them in a shallow, ceramic dish. Combine the oil, pepper, oregano and bay leaf in a jug, pour this over the feta and cover and refrigerate overnight (or longer if time permits).
• Serve the feta on a mezze platter with olives, skordalia (recipe posted separately) and crusty bread.
• Note: Refrigeration makes oil "cloudy". If you remove the marinated feta from the refrigerator 1 hour before serving, the "cloudiness" will disperse, and the oil will be clear.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425˚F.
• Slice the pearl tomatoes horizontally (each one in four pieces) and place on paper towels to drain. (If you are using one large tomato, cut the end pieces and slice the rest in six slices). After 3-4 minutes, turn them over and place on new paper towels. Cut the pepper into four rings and set aside.
• Oil well a small, shallow ceramic baking dish (or four individual ceramic ramekins) and place half of the tomato slices at the bottom. Sprinkle with some sea salt and crushed pepper flakes. Top with half the bell pepper slices.
• Arrange the two Feta pieces on top of the tomato/pepper layer, place the remaining tomato slices on top of each piece of cheese, and place the rest of the bell pepper rings on the tomato. Drizzle liberally with the extra virgin olive oil, sprinkle with oregano and some more pepper flakes, and transfer to the middle of the oven.
• Bake for about 25 minutes, or until the feta turns a light-golden color and the oil is sizzling. If you want to deepen the color, you can place the dish under the broiler for 1-2 minutes at the end of the cooking time.
• Brush some olive oil on the slices of good, multigrain bread, and grill on both sides. Serve the baked feta immediately with some warm grilled bread.

Steps:

• Preheat broiler.
• Cut cheese into 1/2-inch-thick slices and divide evenly among 4 small flameproof baking dishes (or arrange in 1 layer in a large one). Sprinkle oregano and pepper over cheese.
• Stir together roasted peppers, olives, and oil in a small bowl, then spoon mixture over and around cheese.
• Broil 2 to 4 inches from heat until edges of cheese are golden, about 5 minutes.
