Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
In a small to medium-sized baking dish, place the feta cheese in the center. Arrange the diced tomatoes, sliced bell pepper, and sliced chili pepper around the feta.
Sprinkle the oregano over the top.
Drizzle generously with EVOO.
Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the tomatoes have released their juices and the peppers are softened.
Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley or additional oregano if desired, with crusty bread or pita for dipping.

Notes

For a milder version, omit the hot chili pepper or replace it with another bell pepper.

Incorporating ARGILOS I Early Harvest Extra Virgin Olive Oil into your Bouyiourdi not only enhances the dish's rich flavors but also infuses it with a touch of Greek heritage. Its intense, peppery flavor and Greek heritage make it the perfect companion to this spicy, flavorful dish, ensuring a delicious and authentic result.
