How to Make Shrimp With Feta Over Couscous
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion and garlic and sauté until softened, about 5 minutes.
- Add chopped tomatoes, white wine, lemon juice, and lemon zest. Cook until the liquid reduces slightly, about 5-7 minutes.
- Stir in chicken stock and simmer over medium-low heat for 10 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly.
- Add shrimp to the sauce and simmer until pink and cooked through, about 3-5 minutes.
- If the sauce is thinner than desired, whisk together cornstarch with 1 tablespoon of cold water to form a slurry. Add the slurry to the sauce and cook until thickened.
- Remove the shrimp from the heat and stir in capers, olives, and fresh herbs.
- Prepare couscous according to package directions.
- Divide couscous among four serving plates.
- Spoon the shrimp and sauce over the couscous.
