Ingredients
Scale
1 block (about 200g) of feta cheese
300g (about 10.5 oz) of pasta (penne or fusilli)
400g (14 oz) of cherry tomatoes
1/4 cup of olive oil
4 cloves of garlic, minced
1/2 teaspoon of red pepper flakes
A handful of fresh basil, chopped
Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a large baking dish, combine the cherry tomatoes, minced garlic, and olive oil. Toss them together until well coated.
Place the block of feta cheese in the center of the dish, surrounded by the tomato mixture. Drizzle a bit more olive oil and sprinkle the red pepper flakes over the feta.
Bake in the oven for about 25 minutes, or until tomatoes burst and feta is soft and slightly golden.
While the feta and tomatoes are baking, cook the pasta in a pot of salted boiling water according to package instructions.
Once baking is done, gently mash the feta into the tomatoes to create a sauce. Add the drained pasta along with some reserved pasta water as needed. Mix until combined.
Serve warm, garnished with fresh basil and an extra dash of red pepper flakes if desired.
