Step 1

Arrange a rack in the top third of the oven and heat to 350°F.

Step 2

Heat the oil in a large oven-safe skillet with a lid over medium heat until shimmering. Add the tomatoes and sauté until they start to break down and become saucy, 3 minutes. Add the garlic and sauté for 1 minute more.

Step 3

Stir in the chickpeas, oregano, salt, and a few grinds of black pepper. Cover and bake until the mixture is bubbling and the chickpeas have softened a bit, 15 to 20 minutes.

Step 4

Uncover, taste, and season with more salt and pepper as needed. Crumble the feta evenly over the chickpeas. Adjust the oven temperature to broil on high, place the pan uncovered about 6 inches under the broiler, and broil until the cheese melts, about 3 minutes. Serve in bowls with plenty of crusty bread for dipping.
