A Tik-Tok Sensation
During the pandemic quarantine we have become creative and inventive in our cooking and recipes. The Tik-Tok sensation of this dish sparked my curiosity and I simply had to develop my version. Creamy and delicious, it will quickly become one of your go to dishes for it's simplicity and deliciouness!
Instructions
Preheat oven to 400°F - To a 9" x 13" glass baking dish add tomatoes, dried oregano, chopped garlic and olive oil. Stir these together coating the tomatoes well. Make a well in the center of the pan and place the feta cheese block, drizzle olive oil and sprinkle with more oregano and black pepper. Place on a rack in center of the oven and bake for 40 minutes (just watch that the feta doesn't burn) Cook pasta according to package directions and reserve 1 cup of pasta water before draining. Once feta cheese has baked remove from oven and stir to combine, also use a fork to smash the tomatoes (use caution they will be popping hot and shoot onto you!) add the pasta water, cooked pasta and basil and stir to combine. I like to add freshly graded parmesan cheese. Delicious topped with grilled chicken, roasted shrimp or simply as is. Enjoy served with toasted pita!!
