Ingredients
Method
Preheat the Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Lightly grease a small baking dish or ovenproof skillet with olive oil.
Arrange the Feta and Tomatoes:
- Place the block of feta cheese in the center of the baking dish.
- Scatter the halved cherry tomatoes around the feta.
Add Seasonings and Oil:
- Drizzle olive oil over the feta and tomatoes.
- Sprinkle minced garlic, dried oregano, and red pepper flakes on top.
Bake the Feta and Tomatoes:
- Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes, or until the tomatoes soften and the feta starts to melt.
Add the Eggs:
- Remove the dish from the oven and create small wells in the tomato mixture.
- Crack an egg into each well, ensuring the yolks remain intact.
Finish Baking:
- Return the dish to the oven and bake for an additional 7-10 minutes, or until the egg whites are set and the yolks are slightly runny.
Garnish and Serve:
- Remove from the oven and allow to cool for a couple of minutes.
- Garnish with fresh parsley and serve warm with crusty bread or pita.
Notes
- Feta Selection: For the creamiest texture, use a block of feta in brine.
- Spice Level: Adjust the amount of red pepper flakes to match your heat preference.
- Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat gently in the microwave or oven.
