Baked Stuffed Red Peppers with Cherry Tomatoes, Feta, and Thyme
- 2 small red bell peppers (5 to 6 ounces each), halved lengthwise through stem, seeds and ribs removed
- 1 heaping cup cherry tomatoes (about 6 ounces)
- 1 1/2 ounces feta cheese (preferably goats milk), crumbled
- 1 teaspoon coarsely chopped fresh thyme
- 8 basil leaves, torn into pieces
- Freshly ground pepper
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
- Preheat the oven to 400F, with the rack in the top third.
- Place the bell pepper halves, cut sides up, in a baking dish.
- Toss together the tomatoes, feta, thyme, and basil in a medium bowl; season with black pepper.
- Fill each pepper with tomato and feta mixture, dividing evenly.
- Drizzle each with oil.
- Bake the stuffed peppers, covered with aluminum foil, until they begin to soften, about 30 minutes.
- Remove the foil; continue to bake until the tomatoes begin to burst and the cheese turns light brown, 13 to 15 minutes more.
- Remove the stuffed peppers from the oven, and serve warm.
