Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 425˚F.
- Slice the pearl tomatoes horizontally (each one in four pieces) and place on paper towels to drain. (If you are using one large tomato, cut the end pieces and slice the rest in six slices). After 3-4 minutes, turn them over and place on new paper towels. Cut the pepper into four rings and set aside.
- Oil well a small, shallow ceramic baking dish (or four individual ceramic ramekins) and place half of the tomato slices at the bottom. Sprinkle with some sea salt and crushed pepper flakes. Top with half the bell pepper slices.
- Arrange the two Feta pieces on top of the tomato/pepper layer, place the remaining tomato slices on top of each piece of cheese, and place the rest of the bell pepper rings on the tomato. Drizzle liberally with the extra virgin olive oil, sprinkle with oregano and some more pepper flakes, and transfer to the middle of the oven.
- Bake for about 25 minutes, or until the feta turns a light-golden color and the oil is sizzling. If you want to deepen the color, you can place the dish under the broiler for 1-2 minutes at the end of the cooking time.
- Brush some olive oil on the slices of good, multigrain bread, and grill on both sides. Serve the baked feta immediately with some warm grilled bread.

Tips for Making Broiled Tomatoes with Feta Cheese:
- Choose ripe, flavorful tomatoes. Look for tomatoes that are deep red in color and have no blemishes. Avoid tomatoes that are green or have soft spots.
- Use a good quality feta cheese. Feta cheese should be firm and crumbly, with a slightly salty flavor. Avoid feta cheese that is soft or runny.
- Broil the tomatoes until they are slightly charred. This will give them a smoky flavor and caramelize their natural sugars.
- Don't overcrowd the baking sheet. If the tomatoes are too close together, they will not cook evenly.
- Serve the tomatoes immediately. Broiled tomatoes are best enjoyed when they are hot and fresh.
Conclusion:
Broiled tomatoes with feta cheese is a simple but delicious dish that can be enjoyed as an appetizer, side dish, or main course. It is a great way to use up fresh tomatoes and feta cheese. The tomatoes are roasted until they are slightly charred and caramelized, and the feta cheese melts and becomes gooey. The dish is finished with a drizzle of olive oil and a sprinkle of fresh herbs. Broiled tomatoes with feta cheese is a quick and easy dish that is sure to please everyone at your table.
