Broiled Feta With Oranges Food

ROASTED FETA WITH HONEY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Select a small oven-to-table earthenware dish or a small ovenproof sauté pan lined with aluminum foil to help transfer the cheese to a plate after roasting. Place the feta in the dish and cover with the olive oil. Bake until the cheese is soft and springy to the touch but not melted, about 8 minutes.
• Preheat the broiler. Heat the honey in the microwave or over a pan of simmering water until it is fluid enough to be spread with a pastry brush and then paint the surface of the feta with it. Broil until the top of the cheese browns and just starts to bubble. Season to taste with black pepper. Serve immediately with pita wedges and, if desired, sliced heirloom tomatoes, roasted beets, nuts or pickled vegetables.

BROILED TOMATOES WITH FETA CHEESE

Steps:

• Cut tomatoes in half lengthwise, and place, cut sides up, on a baking sheet.
• Sprinkle evenly with salt and pepper to taste, Italian seasoning, and feta cheese. Drizzle evenly with 1/4 cup Italian dressing.
• Broil 3 inches from heat 2 to 3 minutes or just until cheese starts to brown.

ROASTED BROCCOLI WITH SEEDS AND FETA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°. Toast sesame seeds in a small dry skillet over medium heat, swirling occasionally, until beginning to brown, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a bowl. Add cumin, poppy, and sunflower seeds to skillet and cook, swirling occasionally, until cumin seeds are fragrant, about 2 minutes. Transfer to bowl with sesame seeds; season with salt and 1/2 teaspoon coriander.
• Toss broccoli with oil and remaining 2 teaspoons coriander; season with salt and pepper. Spread in a single layer on a baking sheet and roast, flipping once, until charred in spots and tender but not mushy, about 20 minutes. Let cool 15 minutes. Toss with feta brine.
• Arrange broccoli and feta on a platter. Sprinkle evenly with turmeric and drizzle generously with oil. Top with toasted seeds and serve warm or at room temperature.
