Viral Feta Pasta Recipe (2024)

If you’re on TikTok, you’ve almost certainly come across this FETA PASTA RECIPE! It went so viral that grocery stores were running out of feta cheese. It’s no surprise, because not only is this TikTok pasta recipe simple, it’s so rich and flavorful.

I admit it – I spend way too much time aimlessly watching TikTok videos. It’s my favorite way to wind down before bed each night.

Of course, sometimes I stay up way too late because I just can’t stop scrolling. Anyone else? 😉

I first saw this feta pasta from Feel Good Foodie and her TikTok account, fell in love, and now follow her blog. My feta pasta is a bit different from hers, but I think you’re going to love it!

It’s been done by, well, everyone on TikTok at this point. This TikTok pasta is famously delicious!

Feta was even sold out in many grocery stores for awhile, because so many people were making this dish!

We love Greek flavors. If you do too, try this Greek pasta salad next!

Ingredients for the TikTok Pasta:

Pasta – We’re using linguine in our feta pasta, but you may use any shape of pasta that you like. Macaroni, cavatappi, farfalle…they all work perfect.

Feta – This is a key ingredient and you’ll want to choose the best feta you can afford. A truly creamy Greek feta in brine will result in the best sauce. We don’t recommend crumbled feta as it’s much drier.

Cherry Tomatoes – Cherry tomatoes have a thin skin and lots of juice, making them perfect for this sauce.

Garlic

Italian Seasoning

Cayenne – Just a pinch to add a little balance to all that creamy goodness. You can also serve with red pepper flakes on the side, if preferred.

Olive Oil

Basil – Fresh basil is the perfect finishing touch.

How to Make:

Prepare – Add the tomatoes to a roasting pan and drizzle with olive oil. Toss them well to coat. Place the feta in the center. Sprinkle with the garlic and seasonings and then drizzle the feta with a bit more olive oil.

Roast – Pop this in a 425 degree oven and roast for about 25 minutes or until the tomatoes are soft and the feta is browning.

Boil – During the last 10 minutes of cooking, boil your pasta. We like ours al dente, but you may cook it however you prefer.

Combine – Use a spoon to stir together the feta and tomatoes to create a creamy sauce. The tomatoes will break up a bit as you stir – you can leave this as chunky or as smooth as you like. Stir in a bit of pasta water to smooth things out and then toss in the pasta.

Serve – Top with the freshly chopped basil and sprinkle on some red pepper flakes, if desired. Serve this while it’s hot and creamy.
