Categories     Main Course

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 pound large shrimp (40 to 50 per pound peeled, deveined shrimp, tails on or off (fresh or frozen and thawed))
¾ teaspoon kosher salt (divided)
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper (divided)
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 small red onion (chopped)
2 cloves garlic (minced (about 2 teaspoons))
1 14.5-ounce can fire roasted diced tomatoes in their juices
1 teaspoon dried oregano
¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 teaspoon honey
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
1 14-ounce can artichoke hearts (drained and quartered)
½ cup pitted Kalamata olives
3/4 cup crumbled feta cheese
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice (from about ½ medium lemon)
For serving: rice (whole wheat couscous, crusty bread, pasta (optional))

Steps:

  • Place a rack in the center of your oven and preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Pat the shrimp dry, place in a mixing bowl, and sprinkle with ½ teaspoon salt and ¼ teaspoon black pepper. Toss to coat, then set aside.
  • In a large, ovenproof skillet over medium heat, heat the olive oil. Add onion and sprinkle with the remaining ¼ teaspoon salt and ¼ teaspoon black pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 5 minutes. Reduce the heat as needed so that the onion softens but does not brown. Add the garlic and cook just until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
  • Add the tomatoes, oregano, and red pepper flakes. Reduce the heat to medium-low and let gently simmer for 10 minutes. Stir in the red wine vinegar and honey. Remove from the heat.
  • Scatter the artichokes and olives over the top, then arrange the shrimp on top in a single layer. Sprinkle with the feta.
  • Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, until the tomatoes are bubbling, cheese has browned slightly, and the shrimp are cooked through. Squeeze the lemon juice over the top and sprinkle with parsley. Enjoy hot.

BAKED GREEK SHRIMP WITH TOMATOES AND FETA



Baked Greek Shrimp With Tomatoes and Feta image

This traditional Greek recipe disregards the notion that seafood and cheese don't mix, and it works beautifully, resulting in a harmonious balance of flavors. Though it can be made year round with canned tomatoes, it is sensational with fresh sweet ripe ones, so best prepared in summer. Serve it as a main course with rice or potatoes, or in small portions as an appetizer, taverna-style.

Categories     lunch, salads and dressings, appetizer

Time 45m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

Extra-virgin olive oil
3 large shallots, diced, about 1 cup
4 garlic cloves, minced
Salt and pepper
2 pounds large ripe tomatoes
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1 1/2 pounds large shrimp, peeled and deveined
4 ounces Greek feta cheese
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
2 tablespoons roughly chopped mint

Steps:

  • Put 4 tablespoons olive oil in a wide skillet over medium heat. Add shallots and garlic, season with salt and pepper and cook, stirring, until softened, about 5 to 8 minutes. Lower heat as necessary to keep mixture from browning. Remove from heat while preparing tomatoes.
  • Fill a saucepan with water and bring to a boil. Add whole tomatoes and cook for about 2 minutes, until skins loosen. Immediately plunge tomatoes in a bowl of cold water to cool, then drain. With a paring knife, core tomatoes and slip off skins. Cut tomatoes into thick wedges.
  • Heat oven to 400 degrees. Return skillet to stove over medium-high heat. Add tomato wedges and season with salt, pepper and red pepper flakes. Cook, stirring, until mixture is juicy and tomatoes have softened, about 10 minutes. Transfer mixture to a shallow earthenware baking dish.
  • Put shrimp in a mixing bowl. Add 1 tablespoon olive oil, season shrimp with salt and pepper and stir to coat. Arrange shrimp over tomato mixture in one layer. Crumble cheese over surface and sprinkle with oregano.
  • Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, until tomatoes are bubbling and cheese has browned slightly. Remove from oven and let dish rest for 5 minutes. Sprinkle with mint and serve.

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use fresh, ripe tomatoes. If tomatoes are out of season, you can use canned diced tomatoes, but be sure to drain them well.
  • If you don't have feta cheese on hand, you can substitute another type of cheese, such as goat cheese or Parmesan.
  • To add a little extra flavor to the shrimp, you can marinate them in olive oil, lemon juice, and herbs before cooking.
  • If you're using wooden skewers, be sure to soak them in water for at least 30 minutes before using to prevent them from burning.
  • Be careful not to overcook the shrimp. They should be cooked just until they turn pink and opaque.

Conclusion:

This Mediterranean shrimp recipe is a delicious and easy way to enjoy the flavors of the Mediterranean. It's perfect for a weeknight meal or a special occasion. The shrimp are cooked to perfection and the tomatoes and feta cheese add a delicious flavor. Serve this dish with your favorite sides, such as rice, pasta, or vegetables.
