| Preparation:
Remove stems from peppers and seed with a
melon-baller. Place one garlic clove, one oregano leaf and a bit of anchovy
(to taste), between 1/2 and 1 depending on pepper size, usually is good.
Fill pepper with feta cheese and drizzle with olive oil. Place in preheated (350 degree) oven or on the grill until peppers are soft or browned.
I use mini muffin tins for small batches to help keep them upright or crowd them in a pie
pan so they won't move. Serve as an appetizer or for a party
snack.
