Spread the love

Ingredients for 2 servings:

  • 200 g pasta or more
  • 200 g fried peppers
  • 1 small onion(s), optional
  • 150 g feta cheese
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • pepper
  • possibly chili

Instructions

Working time approx. 10 minutes; Cooking/baking time approx. 15 minutes; Total time approx. 25 minutes

Cook the pasta according to the package instructions. Dice the onion and fry in a pan with 2 tablespoons of olive oil until golden brown. While frying, wash the peppers and trim the stems; the seeds can be left in. Dry thoroughly so they don’t splatter in the pan later. When the onions are done, remove them from the pan briefly so they don’t overcook. Increase the heat to almost high, add the remaining olive oil, or more to taste, and fry the peppers until well browned. Break the feta into small to medium pieces and add to the pan. Reduce the heat and add the onions back in. Heat briefly. Add the pasta. Season with pepper and chili powder, if desired. Salt isn’t really necessary, as the feta is already quite salty. Adjust seasoning if desired. Note: You can also add fresh tomatoes or arugula at the end for a fresh flavor.
