I am a huge fan of shrimp. I can pretty much eat them in any form. Today’s recipe for Greek Shrimp has moved high on my list of my favorite shrimp recipes.
Greek Shrimp
You start this recipe on the stove and saute onions, then add in tomatoes and spices.
Then you pile half of this mixture into an oven safe dish, add in the shrimp and then pile on the last of the tomato mixture.
Pour the feta cheese, I used garlic herb, on top of the mixture and bake the Greek Shrimp so all the flavors blend and the juices thicken.
The feta shrimp really completes this dish. I served it on french bread but you could easily make this a full meal and serve it over rice or noodles.
Enjoy!
