Fiery Peppered Feta With Pita
- 10 ounces feta cheese
- 1 cup yogurt (drained in a paper towel lined sieve for 4 hours)
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 1/2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 1/2 teaspoons sweet paprika, plus more for sprinkling
- 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- fresh ground black pepper
- black olives, as a garnish (such as Kalamata)
- 3 fresh pita breads, each cut into 8 to 12 wedges (8-inch diameter)
- Preheat the oven to 400u0b0F.
- Place the feta, yogurt, and 1/4 teaspoons salt in a bowl and mash with a fork to make a smooth paste. Alternatively this can be pureed in a food processor. Add the garlic, 1 tablespoon of the olive oil, paprika, and cayenne. Season with salt and black pepper and mix well.
- Wrap the pita tightly in foil and place in the oven until warm, about 10 minutes.
- Spread the feta puree on a serving plate. Drizzle with the remaining 1/2 tablespoon olive oil, paprika, and garnish with olives. Serve with the warm pita.
