How to Make Cherry Peppers Stuffed With Feta

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Halve 1 pound of cherry peppers vertically, leaving the stems intact for a pretty presentation.
  3. Gently remove the seeds and membranes from the pepper halves using a small spoon or knife.
  4. Pat the pepper halves dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
  5. In a medium bowl, combine 4 ounces crumbled feta cheese, 2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint, 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder, and a pinch of salt and freshly ground black pepper. Mix well.
  6. Spoon the feta mixture generously into each pepper half.
  7. Arrange the stuffed peppers in a small baking dish.
  8. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the peppers are slightly softened and the feta is warmed through.
