Ingredients
2 red bell peppers
1 pound feta
2 plum tomatoes, cored and chopped into 1-inch pieces
4 peeled strips lemon or orange zest
1/4 cup small black olives (12 to 16), preferably Niçoise
Freshly ground pepper
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
Pitas or flatbreads, for serving
Preparation
Preheat oven to 425°F. Place peppers directly over a gas flame (or char under the broiler), turning occasionally, until blackened and blistering, about 10 minutes. Transfer to a bowl, cover with a plate, and let stand until cool. Scrape skins off with a paring knife or paper towel. Remove and discard stems, ribs, and seeds. Cut into 1-inch pieces.
Divide feta between 4 small baking dishes or cazuelas (or use one 10-inch ovenproof skillet); top with tomatoes, roasted peppers, zest, and olives. Season with pepper and drizzle with oil.
Cover each dish with parchment-lined foil and transfer to a rimmed baking sheet. (Or, if using a skillet, place directly on oven rack.) Bake until warmed through, 10 to 15 minutes; uncover and continue baking until cheese is lightly browned, 10 to 15 minutes more. Lightly char pitas over flame (or under broiler) and serve on the side.
