Broiled Tomatoes With Feta Cheese Recipes

BROILED FETA WITH GARLICKY CHERRY TOMATOES & CAPERS

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler and set the oven rack in the top position. Place the feta in a small (1-quart) baking dish and set aside.
• Heat the oil in medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook, stirring constantly, until lightly golden, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the tomatoes, salt, pepper and sugar; cook, stirring frequently, until the tomatoes are softened and starting to burst, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the capers.
• Scatter the tomatoes around the feta and broil until the feta is softened and browned on top, 3 to 4 minutes (but keep an eye on it as broilers vary greatly.) Serve warm with bread.

BROILED TOMATOES

Steps:

• Preheat your broiler on high. Position an oven rack 6 inches below the heating element (not directly below).
• Cut the tomatoes in half. Cut a tiny sliver from the bottom of each half, so that the tomatoes can stand upright without wobbling.
• Spray the tomatoes all over with olive oil. Place them on a broiler-safe rimmed baking dish, cut side up.
• Sprinkle the tomatoes with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and thyme. Top with Parmesan, 2 tablespoons for each tomato half.
• Broil until the cheese is golden brown, 3-5 minutes.

GRILLED FETA TOMATOES

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat, and lightly oil the grate.
• Slice off the top of each tomato. Use a spoon to hollow out the inside. Sprinkle the cavities with pepper. Rub the olive oil onto the outside of the tomatoes, coating well. Fill each tomato evenly with the feta cheese.
• Place tomatoes on preheated grill. Cook until tomatoes are soft and wrinkled, and cheese is hot, about 15 minutes.

BROILED TOMATOES

Steps:

• Turn on your broiler. A toaster oven with broiling ability is great or a George Foreman Grill.
• Remove the cores of the tomatoes then cut them in half (horizontally).
• Place cut side up: then rub Olive oil over cut side (use fingertip).
• Sprinkle bread crumbs on next.
• Sprinkle Herb seasonings on and salt/pepper.
• Then place 1/4 teaspoon of unsalted butter on each half.
• Broil until tomato is hot completely.
• ^May add cheese or mushrooms when nearly done, but don't get them to close to burners in oven.

GREEK FETA GRILLED CHEESE SANDWICH

Steps:

• Heat the pan on medium.
• Add a slab of butter to the pan and let it melt completely.
• Assemble half of the cheese on one slice of bread. Layer on the tomato slices, onions, and olives, (plus the oregano if you want it) and top with the other half of your cheese. Feta usually comes in a somewhat thin block, so cutting it into thin strips works well for a sandwich like this.
• Once the butter is completely melted, coats the whole pan, and starts bubbling a little, put the sandwich into the pan. Cook for 4-5 minutes on one side, checking to make sure it isn't burning.
• Once the first side is golden brown, flip and cook the other side. Add a sliver of butter to the pan if needed.
• When both sides are a crispy golden brown and the cheese is melty, your Greek feta grilled cheese sandwich is done and ready to eat.

GRILLED TOMATO AND FETA SANDWICH

Steps:

• Stir mayonnaise, feta cheese, and lemon zest together in a small bowl until well blended. Spread feta mixture evenly over bread slices.
• Top 2 slices of the bread evenly with tomato slices and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Top tomatoes with remaining bread slices, feta-side down. Brush both sides of the sandwich evenly with olive oil.
• Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Cook sandwiches in the hot skillet until golden brown on the first side, about 3 minutes. Flip and cook on the other side until golden and toasted, about 3 minutes more. Serve immediately.
