Ingredients
- 1.5 lbs baby potatoes, halved
- 1 block (7 oz) feta cheese
- 3 tbsp olive oil
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley, chopped (optional for garnish)
- Lemon zest (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
- In a large baking dish, combine halved baby potatoes, olive oil, minced garlic, oregano, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat evenly.
- Nestle the block of feta cheese in the center of the dish.
- Bake uncovered for 35–40 minutes, or until potatoes are fork-tender and golden.
- Once out of the oven, mash the feta slightly and mix it into the potatoes to coat them in the creamy cheese.
- Garnish with chopped parsley and lemon zest if desired. Serve warm
Notes
- You can use crumbled feta instead of a block—just keep it off the top layer to prevent burning.
- Add cherry tomatoes or red onions for extra flavor.
- Make it spicy with a pinch of red chili flakes or paprika.
