BAKED FETA TOMATO PASTA RECIPE WITH SHRIMP
As much as we try not to be susceptible to hype, for the most part Tik Tok trends have turned out to be legit time and again (we're looking at you, Tik Tok tortilla hack!). The most recent example is the baked feta pasta recipe that originated with Finnish blogger and artist Jenni Häyrinen. Like many of the best recipes, the premise is simple: bake cherry tomatoes, feta and oil until everything is bubbling, then mix with your favorite pasta. It creates a delicious sauce in absolutely no time. We decided to put our own spin on the viral recipe by using more tomatoes, chili flakes instead of chili peppers and lots of garlic, plus cooking shrimp directly from frozen at the same time for some added protein to be mixed in with the pasta. It is quick, easy, delicious, and definitely worth the hype.

Steps:
- Step 1: Preheat oven to 400F. Bring a salted pot of water to a boil.
- Step 2: Rinse the frozen shrimp and place on a baking sheet. Toss with 1 tablespoon olive oil and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Set aside.
- Step 3: Drizzle 1/2 cup olive oil on a second baking sheet. Put the block of feta on the sheet along with 2 pints of cherry or grape tomatoes and 6 to 8 cloves garlic. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon red chili flakes and remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt over feta and tomatoes. Gently toss the tomatoes so they are coated in oil.
- Step 4: Put both baking sheets in the oven. Roast the shrimp for 6 minutes, or until just cooked through. Remove and set aside. Cook the feta and tomatoes for 10 minutes then rotate the pan 180 degrees, turn the heat up to 450, and bake for another 15 to 20 minutes, until the tomatoes are bursting and the feta is slightly browned around the edges and very soft, even a little oozy.
- Step 5: Meanwhile, cook the pasta until al dente. Reserve 1 cup or so of the pasta cooking water then drain the noodles.
- Step 6: Remove the feta and tomatoes from the oven and stir to break up the feta. Add everything on the baking sheet (oil and all) to a large pan or bowl along with the cooked spaghetti and shrimp. Toss to combine. Divide among bowls and top with parsley or basil. Serve.

SHRIMP AND TOMATO PASTA
Frozen shrimp is a freezer staple that can be counted on to save dinner any night - simply thaw to use them whenever needed. Here, shrimp and spaghetti are tossed with juicy cherry tomatoes, which are gently simmered until they burst and turn saucy. This dish is best with ripe, in-season cherry tomatoes, but the aromatic fennel seeds and garlic infused in the oil will coax maximum flavor out of less enthusiastic tomatoes while adding depth to the sauce.

Steps:
- In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons oil over medium. Add the shrimp, season with 1 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until just cooked through, about 3 minutes. Transfer the shrimp to a dish and set aside. Discard any excess liquid in the pan.
- Add the remaining 6 tablespoons oil and the garlic cloves to the same pan and cook over medium-low, turning the garlic a couple of times until light gold and fragrant, taking care not to burn them, about 4 minutes. Add the fennel seeds and red-pepper flakes, stir and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Increase the heat to medium and add the cherry tomatoes and 1 1/2 teaspoons salt.
- Cook the tomatoes, stirring occasionally, until they release their juices and get saucy, 25 to 30 minutes. While the tomatoes cook, bring a large pot of well-salted water to a boil for the pasta. Add the spaghetti and cook until al dente, about 10 minutes.
- Transfer the shrimp with any juices to the tomatoes to reheat for a couple of minutes. Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning.
- Set the pasta pot next to the saucepan and use tongs to transfer the spaghetti to the tomatoes and shrimp. The starchy water clinging to the spaghetti will make for a tasty and silky sauce. (You can drain the spaghetti, if you prefer. If you do, reserve 1/4 cup of the pasta water to add as needed for a silky sauce.) Remove the pan from the heat, add the basil and toss well. Season with black pepper to taste and serve.

- In an 8-quart kettle bring 6 quarts salted water to a boil and cook linguine until al dente. Reserve 1/3 cup pasta water and drain pasta. Add pasta to sauce and toss well, adding enough pasta water to reach desired consistency.

Tips:
- Select the ripest tomatoes: Look for tomatoes that are deep red and slightly soft to the touch. Avoid tomatoes that are green or have blemishes.
- Use a variety of tomatoes: For a more complex flavor, use a mix of different types of tomatoes, such as cherry tomatoes, Roma tomatoes, and heirloom tomatoes.
- Roast the tomatoes: Roasting the tomatoes intensifies their flavor and sweetness. You can roast them in the oven or on the grill.
- Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs, such as basil, oregano, and thyme, add a bright and flavorful touch to the dish.
- Don't overcook the shrimp: Shrimp cooks quickly, so be careful not to overcook it. Overcooked shrimp will become tough and rubbery.
- Use a good quality feta cheese: Feta cheese adds a salty and tangy flavor to the dish. Look for a feta cheese that is made from sheep's milk or a blend of sheep's and goat's milk.
Conclusion:
Tomato and shrimp pasta with feta is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a quick weeknight meal. The roasted tomatoes add a sweet and flavorful touch, the shrimp is cooked to perfection, and the feta cheese adds a salty and tangy flavor. This dish is sure to please everyone at the table.
