Parchment paper
Aluminum foil
baking pan
- 2 loukaniko (Greek sausage)
- 100 grams Kefalotyri cheese, cut into pieces
- lemon wedges for serving
Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
Using a sharp knife carefully cut a lengthwise slit in each loukaniko, being careful not to cut all the way through to the bottom, and keeping the ends intact.
Cut your cheese into slices that can be tucked all along the slits you have made.
Wrap each loukaniko in parchment paper and then aluminum foil and bake in a baking pan in the bottom rack of your oven for 30 - 35 minutes.
Remove from oven and let rest for 5 minutes before unwrapping them.
Serve with lemon wedges and crusty bread. Enjoy!
