Baked Shrimp with Tomatoes, Feta, and Herbs
A great philosopher once said: “Shrimp is the fruit of the
sea. You can barbeque it, boil it, broil it, bake it, sauté it.” Truer words have never been said.
Whether it be pan fried, deep fried, or stir fried, there
are any number of tasty preparations! There's pineapple
shrimp, lemon ship, coconut shrimp, pepper shrimp, shrimp soup, shrimp stew,
shrimp and potatoes, shrimp burger, shrimp sandwich.
That’s about it.
This dish highlights what makes shrimp so appealing. The
shrimp itself is bathed in a hot broth of tomatoes, feta, and fresh herbs. It
emerges slightly buttery, with a hint of sweetness. The smell? Slightly briny, and
a smell that is reminiscent of the sea. In a word: heavenly.
The best part? It takes less than 30 minutes!
When you’re ready to eat, be sure to have some crusty bread
around. The sauce is so good, you’ll definitely be coming back for more!
