FETA AND SCALLION DIP WITH OLIVE OIL AND LEMON (BOBBY FLAY)



Feta and Scallion Dip With Olive Oil and Lemon (Bobby Flay) image

DH and I made this tasty dip from my "Boy Gets Grill" cookbook. We easily halved the recipe to suit four people. I got lots of compliments from the friends I served it to. It is pretty lemony, so if you are not a fan of lemons, this may not be for you. Also, my feta was Bulgarian and it was extremely salty so I did not add any extra salt to the recipe. Also, we cheated and just used store bought pita chips.

Time 12m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

12 scallions, dark green and pale green parts only, chopped
1 scallion, thinly sliced for garnish
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil, plus extra for brushing the pitas
2 teaspoons grated lemon zest
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 lb feta, crumbled
salt, to taste
fresh ground black pepper, to taste
6 pocketless pita breads

Steps:

  • Combine the chopped scallions, oil, lemon zest and lemon juice in a food processor and process until smooth. (If you don't have a food processor, you can use an electric mixer or a wooden spoon instead, but the dip will not be as smooth). Add the feta and process until smooth.
  • Scrape the mixture into a serving bowl. (The dip can be made up to this point a few hours in advance, covered and kept refrigerated). Bring to cool room temperature before serving).
  • When ready to serve, season to taste with salt and pepper and garnish with the sliced scallion.
  • Heat your grill to high.
  • Brush the pitas with a little oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Grill the pitas for 1 minute on each side, until lightly browned. Remove from the grill and cut each pita into 8 wedges for serving. Serve warm with the dip.

FETA LEMON DIP

Categories     Condiment/Spread     Cheese     Appetizer

Number Of Ingredients 7

7 ounces feta cheese (about 1 cup crumbled)
1 tablespoon grated lemon zest, plus more for garnish
1-2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 garlic clove, minced
6 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for serving
Pinch of red pepper flakes
Crudités, chips, toasts, or pita crisps, for serving

Steps:

  • 1. Place the feta, lemon zest, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, garlic, and olive oil in a blender and whir until combined but still slightly chunky. It's dense, so you may need to stir it with a fork once or twice. Taste, and if it's too salty add more lemon juice. 2. Spoon into a serving bowl, drizzle with a little oil, and sprinkle with a pinch of pepper flakes and some lemon zest. 3. Serve with crudités, chips, toasts or pita crisps.
