Feta Pasta – TikTok Viral

This is the super popular TikTok viral feta pasta recipe. It is incredibly easy to make and absolutely scrumptious.

Use this recipe as a jumping off point for your own variations. Add in some chopped onions or shallots, throw some steamed vegetables in there (broccoli is especially good, I think), or use a different kind of cheese. I’ve seen people use Burrata, goat cheese, or Boursin cheese with great results.

Directions

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees

Rinse tomatoes and put in baking dish.

Add half of the oil and season with salt and pepper.

Give the tomatoes a good toss so its all well coated.

Add the block of feta to the center.

Drizzle the remaining oil over top and season with kosher salt and a generous amount of fresh black pepper.

Bake uncovered for 35-40 mins until the tomatoes skin have burst.

While baking, boil pasta according to package.

Reserve a small bit of the pasta water if using a non Greek feta cheese.

Once the tomatoes and feta have cooked, remove from oven, use a fork and smash the tomatoes and feta.

Use a wooden spoon to stir the mixture together inside the baking dish.

Add pasta and toss to coat.

Add additional salt and pepper if desired. Serve immediately.

Notes:

The photos show an 8*8 dish which was perfect for one pint of tomatoes.

GREEK Feta cheese has a creamier texture than an American brand Feta cheese. I had to get the cheese from Whole foods. My block of cheese was also in a brine. It did not alter the taste of the cheese nor the sauce and it was perfectly creamy.

If GREEK feta cheese is not available in your area, you may use a regular feta and add in a little of the pasta water and ricotta cheese for additional creaminess. Using a crumbly non smooth feta will change the texture of this dish.
