Greek-Style Grilled Feta

Recipe from my Grilling and More cookbook. The original recipe is for 8 servings (3 slices per serving) - I made 8 slices total, so will reflect that in my recipe. Also, I bought a Mediterranean flavored feta, which already had spices mixed into it. If using regular feta, sprinkle oregano and garlic or black pepper on top of the feta before cooking.


Ingredients:
1 package (8 oz) feta cheese, sliced in half horizontally
8 (1/4 inch) slices small onion
1/2 green pepper, thinly sliced
8 slices (1/2 inch) French bread

Directions:
Spray 2 14-inch-long sheets of foil with nonstick cooking spray. Cut feta into 8 slices. Place onion slices in center of foil and top with feta slices. I put 4 on each piece of foil. Sprinkle with pepper slices (I put 3 small pieces on each).

Seal foil by bringing the two long sides of foil together above the food. Fold down the foil in a series of locked folds, then fold the short ends up and over again. Press folds firmly to seal the foil packet.

Place the foil packets on the grill upside down and grill on covered grill for 15 minutes. Turn packets over, grill another 15 minutes. Place pieces of bread on grill for about 1-2 minutes per side.

Open packets carefully and serve atop slices of bread.
