Grilled Banana Pepper and Feta Salad

The final component of my Greek feta inspire meal was this grilled banana pepper and feta salad that I also found on Greek Food R & R. I am a huge fan of roasted or grilled peppers of all kinds from sweet red bell peppers to spicy jalapeno and poblano peppers and I liked the sound of a simple salad where the main component was roasted mildly spicy banana peppers. I have to say that this salad reminds me a lot of htipiti, a Greek roasted red pepper and feta dip where I often like to add roasted jalapeno peppers to add a spicy kick. In addition to the peppers and the feta, this salad includes with a glug of extra virgin olive oil, a dash of oregano and a splash lemon juice to brighten things up. Depending on how much heat you like, feel free to remove the seeds from the pepper when you remove the charred shin before serving.
