FETA SHRIMP SKILLET
On our honeymoon in Greece, my husband and I had a dish like this one. I tried to re-create the flavors in this recipe when we got home. When I make it now, it brings back such wonderful memories. -Sonali Ruder, New York, New York

This Greek spin on the classic baked rice casserole calls for shrimp, but chicken can also be used. Cut three large boneless chicken breasts into cubes and brown first in oil in a hot skillet before adding to cooked rice. If you plan on doubling the recipe, use 2 1/2 cups (625 mL) rice and only 4 1/2 cups (1.125 L) stock. From Food and Drink.

Steps:
- Heat oil in heavy large pot over medium-high heat. Add onion and garlic and sauté until onion is tender, about 6 minutes. Add rice and stir until rice is translucent, about 2 minutes. Add broth and wine and bring to boil. Reduce heat to low; cover and cook until rice is almost tender, about 15 minutes. Mix in spinach. Cover and cook until rice and spinach are tender and all liquid is absorbed, about 8 minutes longer. Mix in tomatoes and cheese. Season with salt and pepper and serve.
Tips:
- Choose the right shrimp. Medium or large shrimp work best for this recipe. Avoid using small shrimp, as they can easily overcook and become tough.
- Cook the shrimp properly. Shrimp should be cooked just until they are opaque and pink. Overcooked shrimp will be tough and rubbery.
- Use fresh spinach. Fresh spinach has the best flavor and texture. If you can't find fresh spinach, you can use frozen spinach, but be sure to thaw it and squeeze out all of the excess water before using.
- Use a good quality feta cheese. Feta cheese is a key ingredient in this recipe, so it's important to use a good quality cheese. Look for feta cheese that is made from sheep's milk or a combination of sheep's and goat's milk.
- Don't overcook the rice. The rice should be cooked until it is tender, but still has a slight bite to it. Overcooked rice will be mushy and unappetizing.
- Serve immediately. This dish is best served immediately, while the shrimp and rice are still hot and the spinach is still wilted.
Conclusion:
This shrimp and creamy spinach feta rice is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a quick and easy weeknight meal. It's also a great dish to serve at a party or potluck. With its creamy sauce, tender shrimp, and flavorful spinach, this dish is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
