- 1 (8-ounce) block feta cheese
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, (roughly chopped)
- 10½ ounces cherry tomatoes, (preferably different colors, halved)
- Scant ¼ teaspoon salt
- ⅛ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- Pinch sugar
- 1½ tablespoons capers, (drained)
Steps
Preheat the broiler and set the oven rack in the top position. Place the feta in a small (1-quart/1-liter) 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.
