Description

This vibrant Greek-inspired dish brings the bright flavors of the Mediterranean to your dinner table. Plump, succulent shrimp are nestled in a savory sauce made from ripe chopped tomatoes, sweet onions, and aromatic garlic. The star of the show is the generous amount of crumbled feta cheese, which melts slightly into the warm tomato mixture, creating a creamy, tangy contrast to the sweet seafood. Finished with a sprinkle of fresh flat-leaf parsley and a splash of dry white wine, this recipe is elegant yet effortless. It&# 226;ÂÂs perfect for a romantic weeknight dinner or a light summer meal served alongside crusty bread to soak up the delicious juices.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400ðF (200ðC).
  2. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.
  3. Add the sliced onions and crushed garlic, sautéing until softened and translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
  4. Stir in the chopped tomatoes and sugar, cooking until the tomatoes begin to break down and release their juices, about 5 minutes.
  5. Pour in the dry white wine and simmer for 2 minutes to cook off the alcohol.
  6. Add the shrimp to the skillet, tossing to coat in the sauce. Cook for 2 minutes until the shrimp just begin to turn pink.
  7. Season the mixture with salt and pepper to taste.
  8. Divide the shrimp and tomato mixture evenly among 6 individual baking dishes or ramekins.
  9. Top each portion generously with crumbled feta cheese.
  10. Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, until the shrimp are opaque and cooked through and the cheese is warm.
  11. Garnish with finely chopped flat-leaf parsley before serving.
