Marinated Feta

Marinated Feta

I’m well aware that everyone knows this marinated feta recipe or does it in their own way, but that’s how I cook it – it’s a quick appetizer for unexpected guests that just rang a doorbell to your house. Keeps well in the refrigerator.

Ingredients

  • 4 black olives, finely chopped
  • 2 fresh sage leaves, or more to taste
  • 1 clove garlic, crushed
  • 1 red chile pepper (Optional)
  • 1 sprig fresh rosemary, or more to taste
  • ¼ red bell pepper, finely chopped
  • 1 tablespoon toasted sesame-ginger seasoning (such as Victoria Gourmet ®)
  • 1 small pepperoncini pepper, finely sliced
  • ½ tablespoon chopped fresh oregano
  • 14 ounces feta cheese, cubed
  • ½ cup olive oil

Directions

Step 1
Place a layer of olives, sage, garlic, chile pepper, rosemary, bell pepper, sesame-ginger seasoning, pepperoncini pepper, and oregano into the bottom of a container. Add a layer of feta cheese. Repeat layering with remaining ingredients.

Step 2
Pour olive oil into the container to cover feta mixture completely. Cover and refrigerate until serving.

Cook’s Notes:

Sometimes when you buy feta cheese, it happens to be very salty; that's the time when I marinate it. I use this marinated feta as a main ingredient for Greek salad or just topping on toasted baguettes, similar to bruschetta. My friends and family like it.
