Preheat the oven to 400 °F (200 °C).

Place the feta cheese in the center of a 9 or 10-inch round baking pan.

Arrange the tomatoes around the feta cheese and season them with salt and pepper.

Drizzle the olive oil over the tomatoes and feta cheese.

Add the capers and season with crushed red pepper flakes and oregano.

Bake on the center rack of the preheated oven for about 20 minutes.

Turn the broiler element on high and transfer the baking tray to the top rack. Broil until the feta turns golden brown on top and the tomatoes are wrinkled, about 3 minutes. Keep a close eye on it so that it does not burn.
