- Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and crush 2 garlic cloves into it; cook until fragrant, about one minute.

- Taste and add salt and pepper to your liking, then transfer to two bowls or plates.
- Squeeze the juice of half a lime over each bowl and crumble one ounce of feta on top of each; serve at once.
