Oftentimes this classic Greek dish is prepared with a very generous amount of tomato sauce. Using grape tomatoes instead of tomato sauce adds just the right amount of tomato flavor to complement—not overwhelm—the shrimp and feta.

Ingredients

Extra virgin olive oil

4 tsp

Shallot

3 medium, finely chopped

Grape tomatoes

2 cup(s), or cherry tomatoes, halved

Uncooked shrimp

1½ pound(s), large size, peeled and deveined, tails left on if desired

Red pepper flakes

½ tsp

Kosher salt

¾ tsp

Crumbled feta cheese

½ cup(s)

Dill

2 Tbsp, chopped fresh

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F.
  2. Heat oil in large skillet over medium-high heat. Add shallots and cook, stirring, until golden, about 4 minutes. Add tomatoes and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and beginning to burst, about 4 minutes. Add shrimp and pepper flakes; cook, stirring constantly, just until shrimp start to become firm, 1½–2 minutes. Stir in salt.
  3. Transfer shrimp mixture to 9 x 13-inch baking dish or casserole dish. Bake until shrimp are just opaque in center, about 8 minutes. Sprinkle feta on top. Bake until cheese is softened, about 2 minutes longer. Sprinkle with dill.
  4. Serving size: about 1 cup
