Ingredients

  • 12 whole Cherry peppers
  • 150 grams Feta cheese
  • 50 grams Cream cheese
  • 1 clove Garlic
  • 2 tablespoons Olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley
  • 0.25 teaspoons Salt
  • 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Prepare the cherry peppers by slicing off the tops and removing the seeds and membranes using a small spoon or your fingers. Rinse and pat them dry.

Step 2

In a mixing bowl, combine the feta cheese and cream cheese. Use a fork to mash them together until smooth.

Step 3

Grate the garlic clove into the cheese mixture.

Step 4

Finely chop the fresh parsley and stir it into the mixture along with salt and black pepper. Mix until evenly combined.

Step 5

Using a small spoon or piping bag, fill each cherry pepper with the cheese mixture, pressing gently to ensure they are well packed.

Step 6

Place the stuffed peppers on a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Drizzle them lightly with olive oil.

Step 7

Broil the stuffed peppers in the oven on high heat for about 5 minutes, or until the tops start to turn golden and the peppers are slightly softened.

Step 8

Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before serving. Serve warm or at room temperature.
