Labneh with Sizzled Scallions and Chile from Alison Roman
Mix 2 cups labneh with 2 tsp lemon juice, salt, and pepper.
In a medium pan, combine 4 sliced scallions (both white and green parts), 1 tsp crushed red pepper flakes, 2 TB chopped cilantro, and ⅓ cup olive oil.
Cook until leaves sizzle and the pepper flakes turn the oil orange.
Spoon seasoned oil over seasoned labneh, and served with vegetables and pita chips.
