How to Make Baked Shrimp With Feta

  1. Preheat oven to 450°F (232°C).
  2. In a large bowl, combine 1 pound shrimp, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Toss gently to coat.
  3. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Coat with cooking spray.
  4. Add 1/2 cup chopped onion to the skillet and sauté for 1 minute.
  5. Add 2 cloves minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute.
  6. Pour in 1/2 cup clam juice, 1/4 cup dry white wine, 1 teaspoon dried oregano, and 1 (14.5 ounce) can of diced tomatoes (undrained).
  7. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes.
  8. Stir in the shrimp mixture from step 2.
  9. Transfer the mixture to an 11 x 7 inch baking dish coated with cooking spray.
  10. Sprinkle 4 ounces crumbled feta cheese evenly over the mixture.
  11. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until shrimp are pink and opaque and cheese is melted and bubbly.
  12. Garnish with 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley.
  13. Serve immediately. Enjoy with our suggested herbed orzo (recipe below).
  14. **Herbed Orzo:** Cook 1 cup orzo according to package directions, omitting salt and fat. Drain and toss with 1/4 cup chopped fresh basil, 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley, 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper.
