Ingredients

Scale

For the Skewers

  • 200 g feta cheese, cut into 1–2 cm cubes
  • 1 large cucumber, sliced into ½ cm thick rounds
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved (optional)
  • 12–16 small wooden skewers or toothpicks
  • Fresh oregano or parsley leaves for garnish

For the Dressing (Optional Drizzle)

  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp fresh lemon juice
  • ½ tsp dried oregano
  • Pinch of salt and black pepper

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Ingredients: Cut the feta cheese into 1–2 cm cubes, slice the cucumber into ½ cm thick rounds, and halve the cherry tomatoes if using.
  2. Assemble the Skewers: Thread one cucumber slice onto a skewer or toothpick, followed by a cube of feta cheese. Add a cherry tomato half if desired, then repeat the sequence until the skewer is filled, typically 3-4 bites per skewer.
  3. Repeat: Continue assembling the remaining skewers with the same pattern using the leftover ingredients.
  4. Make the Dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, fresh lemon juice, dried oregano, and a pinch of salt and black pepper until well combined.
  5. Serve: Arrange the assembled skewers on a serving platter. Lightly drizzle the dressing over them and garnish with fresh oregano or parsley leaves for an aromatic and attractive finish.
  6. Enjoy: Serve immediately as a fresh appetizer or party snack to enjoy the crisp, creamy Mediterranean flavors at their best.

Notes

  • For a vegetarian option, ensure the feta cheese is made without animal rennet.
  • The cherry tomatoes are optional; you can omit them or substitute with other fresh veggies like olives or bell pepper pieces.
  • Prepare the ingredients in advance and assemble just before serving to keep cucumber crisp.
  • The dressing can be adjusted to taste by adding more lemon juice or herbs.
  • Use fresh herbs for garnish to enhance aroma and presentation.
  • Perfect for entertaining as finger food or as a light snack.
