Enjoyed it. You only need one block of feta. I will cook mine a little longer next time, so more tomatoes burst. A good recipe to play around with. No need for honey. Maybe red onions instead of shallots. Some lemon. Pine nuts might be a nice add for next time. Fresh basil on top at the end.

Really tasty! I used a nice sheeps milk feta, which was delicious, and added 8oz of merguez lamb sausage links and calabrian chiles in lieu of chile flakes (plus some of the chile oil for extra heat). So delicious. The honey blended very well and balanced the tomatoes' tanginess. I used 25 oz. of garden tomatoes because they are so plentiful right now. Would definitely make this again.

beans and cheese have protein. Save a cow or a chicken!

I am going to halve this recipe and make it but I know I am going to make it on top of the stove, too hot to put the oven on. Wish me luck

Added several kinds of olives & artichoke hearts 20 minutes in.

Great dish! We chose it as we wanted something quick and easy for dinner, and we had all the ingredients. At least we thought we did. ... Ended up substituting onion for shallots and using cow's milk feta (8-ounce block from Trader Joe's). Cut the feta into smaller than 1-inch slices as the accompanying photo looked like feta chunks were not that large. And the cow's milk feta withstood the roasting just fine with some extra olive oil on top. Colorful and tasty. This one's definitely a keeper!

My favorite NYT Cooking recipe of the summer! Everything worked beautifully (I used Sheep's milk feta instead of Cow's milk)and the combination is amazing. The best addition I made was to generously sprinkle smoked paprika on everything before putting in the oven. It added this smoky depth that was absolutely delicious!

Melinda

Sooooo….this should be a great dish. I’ve made a similar sheet pan dinner with feta and roasted vegetables served on orzo and it’s fantastic. This was made exactly as written and it was way too dry. Just not as luscious as the other recipe. If I made again, I would add some other vegetable such as red or yellow bell pepper, use red onion rather than shallot, and add some liquid, whether broth, fermented red pepper sauce, or white wine used to deglaze the sheet pan. Needs something…

In a nod to Eric Kim's sheet pan kimchi fried rice, we cracked eggs onto the sheet pan after it had been in the oven for 5-10 minutes and served it with grilled bread. It was a great way to make this a more substantial meal. Even my toddler scarfed it down.

Anne

Could you sub paneer for the feta?

Eileen

Excellent. I followed the recipe exactly, Bulgarian sheep feta from the deli, and a big pinch of Zaatar. Mixture is pretty wet because the tomatoes are so juicy. Line the baking dish. Served with garlicky sautéed greens and garlic toast. Will definitely make this again.

Annie B

Halves beautifully, as written. Yumm-o.

Shannon

Added cauliflower and used cows milk feta, but added half way through cooking

nicole

I have a sensitivity to chickpeas and so I did this with lentils. It was fantastic! I’ve made it multiple times now.

Bri

I missed the tip to use something other than cow's milk feta (not sure why this was buried in a tip). Also the tomatoes burst which resulted in a lot of liquid and the prescribed roast time did not accommodate cooking off the liquid. So the end result was not very roasty. Will probably try again with the proper feta that can withstand a longer roast time. Might also use a bigger baking sheet to cook off the tomato liquid.

Leigh Anne

I followed this exactly and wasn't overly wowed with it, although I appreciated the simplicity of it - I thought it was a bit lacking in flavor. I think next time it could use some lemon zest, maybe oregano and parsley to add some herbal depth.

Maggie

This is one of my all-time favorites! My partner loves it, too. The honey glaze reminds me of Greece. I had no honey once but substituted maple syrup, which was also good. I always double the recipe, so we have leftovers. It's in the rotation. Yum!

Deborah F

This is delicious. Would make it again.

My family loves this served with rice. Since finding the recipe 2 weeks ago we have already eaten it twice. (The second time because my teenager asked for it when it was their turn to pick what was for dinner!) I did use a little less feta than was called for but crumbled it up finer. I also made the sauce by eye, so you can easily make it more or less sweet/spicy as you like. Our family was looking for great tasting meals that were vegetarian, as we have recently committed to eating less meat.

isa

so yum!!! seared some bone in skin on chicken thighs for a bit then put them in the oven w everything else - delicious!

Lisa Conn

Truly easy and delicious. I added pignoli nuts with the tomatoes and I strewed torn basil on top at the end (both things suggested by commenters). I chose to add the feta at the end of baking to assure that the tomatoes were deeply cooked and that the feta wouldn't be dried out. Half the recipe was perfect for two when served with warmed bread and butter. Will definitely be making again!

Marla

I used sheep milk feta from Costco (Kosher variety), one 16oz-ish block. I used only 1T of honey and I used gochugaru, coarsely ground, not red pepper flakes. I mixed the pepper, honey, and olive oil in a bowl, not the pan. Took it out of the oven after 30 minutes and it was perfect! Looked just like the picture, and it was absolutely delicious! The only thing I would do differently with this recipe is to add more shallots. I will roast vegetables in another pan at the same time next time.

Patty

Excellent! Added red bell pepper and red onion in with the tomatoes, feta and EVOO. That went on one sheet pan. On a second sheet pan mixed one can chick peas with one can navy beans and several cloves chopped garlic, olive oil and a sprinkle of smoked paprika. Mmmmm.

GG

Could you use halloumi instead of the feta? I just bought some and am wondering what to do with it. I stumbled across this recipe and am pondering using the halloumi

Bob S

Fantastic as written but did use hot honey. Next time I'll pump up the shallots. Can't wait to try it with homegrown tomatoes. Never had roasted chickpeas before. Effortless.

Sarah

Very good! I made it with vegan feta which melted and basically left everything coated in a delicious cheesy sauce. I’ll make it again with real feta. Added a little extra red pepper flakes which was just the right level.

Jen

So delicious. Two blocks of feta necessary if they are 8oz each. Make sure you note the tip at the bottom of the recipe calling for sheep feta, not cow. Almost missed it myself.

Jennifer

I used a whole red onion, subbed halloumi for the feta, and added some discs of carrot. Cooked for 45 mins and the tomatoes collapsed nicely. Served over fresh baby spinach leaves and topped with a squeeze of lemon. Delicious!

GG

Thank you! I just bought halloumi and will try it. I have everything you mentioned so this saves me a trip to the store and I have my dinner all set now.

Nancy

Almost blew my diet on this one. I used red pepper flakes. Could have eaten the whole dang pan.

dave

I added sliced jalapeños, they gave the dish some nice color. I mixed everything except the feta in a bowl to get things well coated, placed the feta pieces evenly on the sheet pan, then spread the vegetables around them. Much easier than trying to mix everything in the pan.
