Time 20m

Yield 2 dozen

Number Of Ingredients 8

24 cherry tomatoes (preferably heirloom)
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
Kosher salt
2 ounces feta cheese, cut into 24 small cubes (about 1/2 cup)

Broil until the cheese is browned and slightly soft, about 2 minutes.
