Baked Lemony Feta

This recipe originates from the cookbook Dinner in One by Melissa Clark (affiliate link). It is a VERY easy, flavorful and healthy meal that everyone should love. It’s full of tomatoes, peppers, I added sausage and also switched out the red onion for shallots. I ate with homemade Jim Lahey Stecca Bread. Enjoy!

Ingredients

2 lemons, sliced
2 large red, yellow, or orange bell peppers, sliced 1/2 inch thick
1 pint cherry or grape tomatoes
2 shallots, sliced into 1/2 inch wedges
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
Freshly ground black pepper
4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided, plus more for garnish
2 feta blocks
2 large fresh rosemary sprigs
1/2 cup torn fresh basil leaves, for garnish
2 sausages, sliced (I used andouille)

Instructions

Heat oven to 450°F

On a rimmed sheet pan, combine peppers, tomatoes, shallot, half the lemon slices, salt, red pepper flakes, and black pepper. Drizzle 3 tablespoons olive oil and toss until evenly coated. Nestle feta blocks, sausage and rosemary sprigs and lightly drizzle with remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil. Roast until the vegetables are tender and crisp and the feta is golden brown- about 22-30 minutes.

Serve with crusty bread- I used some homemade Jim Lahey Stecca Bread. SO. GOOD!!!!
