Ingredients
- 1 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 1/2 cup roasted red peppers, chopped
- 1 serrano chili, finely chopped (adjust for heat)
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tbsp olive oil, plus more for drizzling
- 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
- Pita chips or fresh vegetables for serving
Directions
Step 1
In a small skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and serrano chili, cooking until the garlic is fragrant, about 1-2 minutes. This adds a spicy and aromatic base to the dip.
Step 2
In a food processor, combine the feta cheese, roasted red peppers, sautéed garlic, and chili. Blend until smooth, adding lemon juice for a bright, tangy finish. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Step 3
Transfer the blended feta dip to an oven-safe dish. Drizzle a bit more olive oil on top for a richer flavor and place under the broiler for 5-7 minutes, or until the top is slightly browned and bubbling.
Step 4
Remove from the oven and let the dip cool slightly. Garnish with chopped parsley for a fresh pop of color. The herbal notes balance the spicy kick of the serrano.
Step 5
Serve the feta fire roasted dip warm with pita chips or fresh vegetables. The creamy and smoky combination is best enjoyed fresh from the oven, adding a bold twist to your appetizer spread.
