Wash the cherry tomatoes thoroughly and pat them dry. Slice each tomato into halves and set them aside in a bowl.
Finely dice the red onion and chop the fresh parsley. Mince the garlic clove.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and diced red onion. Sauté for about 2 minutes or until the onions begin to soften and turn translucent.
Add the halved cherry tomatoes to the skillet. Cook for another 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes begin to soften and release their juices.
Remove the skillet from the heat and let it cool slightly.
Crumble the feta cheese into small pieces and add it to the cooled tomato mixture.
Stir in the chopped parsley, remaining olive oil, red wine vinegar, salt, black pepper, and crushed red pepper flakes. Mix gently to combine all the ingredients without breaking the feta too much.
Transfer the relish to a serving bowl and let it sit for 5-10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Serve immediately as a topping for grilled meats, alongside warm crusty bread, or as a dip for vegetables. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
