Provided by Bobby Flay

Categories     appetizer

Time 25m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 1/2 pounds large shrimp (21 to 24), shelled and deveined
1 pint cherry tomatoes, trimmed
Canola oil, for brushing the skewers
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Greek extra-virgin olive oil, for cooking
3 cloves garlic, chopped
1 shallot, chopped
1/4 cup white wine
2 teaspoons smoked paprika
Pinch ground cinnamon
Pinch red pepper flakes
Clover honey, for sweetening
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh mint, plus sprigs for garnish
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh oregano
Finely grated fresh lemon zest
8 ounces Greek feta, patted dry and crumbled
6 pita breads, warmed, for serving
Special equipment: Wooden skewers, soaked in cold water for 2 hours

Steps:

  • For the shrimp: Prepare a charcoal grill for high direct heat. Skewer a few shrimp onto 2 skewers so the shrimp lay flat. Do the same with the tomatoes. Brush the skewers with canola oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Grill the tomatoes first, until slightly charred on both sides and soft, about 2 minutes each side. Reserve the shrimp skewers to the side.
  • Heat a few tablespoons of olive oil in a large saute pan over medium heat. Cook the garlic and shallots until soft, about 2 minutes. Add the grilled tomatoes, wine, paprika, cinnamon, red pepper flakes and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer. Crush the tomatoes with a spoon. Cook until the sauce thickens. Taste; add some honey if the tomatoes aren't sweet. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Stir in the mint, oregano and lemon zest.
  • Grill the shrimp until just cooked through and slightly charred, about 1 1/2 minutes each side. Remove the shrimp from the skewers and add to the tomato mixture. Toss the shrimp just to coat and transfer to a platter. Top the shrimp with the feta and mint sprigs and drizzle with olive oil. Serve with the pitas to dip in tomato juices.

GRILLED SHRIMP WITH FETA AND TOMATOES



Grilled Shrimp With Feta and Tomatoes image

I got this recipe from our "Parade" Magazine. It was very good. I especially liked the vinaigrette. I served it on the side. Instead of radicchio (which my kids hate) I used a bag of Italian blend lettuce. I also halved the amount of mint leaves and used fresh oregano instead of dried. Great dinner for those hot summer nights.

Yield Makes 4 first-course servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 oz mild feta cheese (preferably French; 1/2 cup)
1/4 cup sour cream
2 tablespoons water
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon minced garlic
2 1/2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh basil
2 medium zucchini (1 lb total)
3/4 lb cherry tomatoes (preferably on the vine, cut into 4 bunches)
1/4 teaspoon salt
Special Equipment
an adjustable-blade slicer

Steps:

  • Prepare grill for cooking over medium-hot charcoal (moderate heat for gas). (If using a charcoal grill, open vents on bottom of grill, then light charcoal. When Charcoal turns grayish white (about 15 minutes from lighting), hold your hand 5 inches above grill rack to determine heat for charcoal as follows: Hot: When you can hold your hand there for 1 to 2 seconds; Medium-hot: 3 to 4 seconds; Low: 5 to 6 seconds. If using a gas grill, preheat burners on high, covered, 10 minutes, then, if necessary, reduce to heat specified in recipe.)
  • Purée feta, sour cream, water, lemon juice, and garlic in a food processor until smooth, then, with motor running, add 1 1/2 tablespoons oil in a slow stream. Add basil and salt and pepper to taste and pulse until just combined.
  • Thinly slice zucchini lengthwise (just under 1/8 inch thick) using slicer. Toss zucchini and tomatoes (on the vine) in a large bowl with salt and remaining tablespoon oil. If using loose cherry tomatoes, thread onto skewers. Grill vegetables, in batches if necessary, on oiled grill rack, turning over once with tongs, until just tender, 3 to 5 minutes total per batch. Serve with sauce.

GRILLED ZUCCHINI AND FETA TOASTS



Grilled Zucchini and Feta Toasts image

Though its flavor is subtle, zucchini absorbs seasonings readily, and develops deep complexity when grilled. In this recipe, the grilled squash is doused with a flavorful oil made with garlic, cumin and coriander. If you have extra time, marinate the grilled zucchini pieces in the spice oil for up to 24 hours to help build flavor. You can serve the dish hot off the grill, or prepare in advance, then serve at room temperature.

Provided by Sue Li

Categories     dinner, lunch, quick, weeknight, appetizer, main course

Time 30m

Yield 2 to 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 medium zucchini (about 1 pound), trimmed and halved lengthwise
1/2 cup olive oil
Kosher salt and black pepper
4 thick slices country or sourdough bread
4 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
1 teaspoon cumin seeds, lightly crushed
1 teaspoon coriander seeds, lightly crushed
1 teaspoon red-pepper flakes
Grilled bread, for serving
3 ounces feta, crumbled into large pieces
Lemon wedges, for serving

Steps:

  • Heat a grill or grill pan over medium-high and brush the grates clean, if grilling outdoors.
  • With a small spoon, scrape the seeds from the middle of zucchini halves and discard. Rub zucchini with 2 tablespoons olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Place zucchini halves onto grill, cut-sides down, and cook until charred on both sides, turning halfway through, 10 to 15 minutes. Transfer grilled zucchini onto a cutting board, let cool slightly then cut into bite-size pieces.
  • While zucchini grills, brush bread on both sides with 2 tablespoons olive oil. Grill until lightly charred on both sides, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a serving platter.
  • While zucchini and bread grill, prepare the spice oil: Heat remaining 1/4 cup oil in a small saucepan over medium-low until hot. Stir in the garlic, cumin seeds, coriander seeds and red-pepper flakes, and remove from heat. The residual heat from the oil will cook the garlic and spices. Transfer spice oil to a large bowl, add grilled zucchini and toss to combine.
  • Spoon zucchini over grilled bread and top with large pieces of feta. Serve with lemon wedges for squeezing on top.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your dish.
  • Don't overcrowd the grill. Make sure there is enough space between the shrimp, zucchini, and tomatoes so that they can cook evenly.
  • Cook the shrimp until they are just opaque. Overcooked shrimp will be tough and rubbery.
  • Add the zucchini and tomatoes to the grill a few minutes after the shrimp. This will help them to cook evenly without burning.
  • Season the vegetables with salt, pepper, and any other desired spices.
  • Serve the grilled shrimp, zucchini, and tomatoes immediately with feta cheese and a squeeze of lemon juice.

Conclusion:

Grilled shrimp, zucchini, and tomatoes with feta is a delicious and healthy meal that is perfect for summer. It is easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. This dish is also a great way to get your daily dose of vegetables. The shrimp provide protein and omega-3 fatty acids, while the zucchini and tomatoes are packed with vitamins and minerals.
