Heat skillet over low heat. Add dried oregano and chili powder; cook and stir until fragrant and toasted, about 1 minute. Off heat, stir in 3 tablespoons olive oil. Pour seasoned oil over feta cheese in a bowl; marinate for at least 30 minutes.

4
Whisk ¼ cup oil, balsamic vinegar, white wine vinegar, and soy sauce together in a bowl; toss into couscous salad.
