Number Of Ingredients 16

4 tablespoons good olive oil, divided
1 1/2 cups medium-diced fennel
1 tablespoon minced garlic (3 cloves)
1/4 cup dry white wine
1 (14 1/2-ounce) can diced tomatoes
2 teaspoons tomato paste
1 teaspoon dried oregano

  • Bake for 15 minutes, until the shrimp are cooked and the bread crumbs are golden brown. Squeeze the juice of 1 lemon over the shrimp. Serve hot with the remaining lemon cut into wedges.

SHEET-PAN SHRIMP WITH TOMATOES, FETA AND OREGANO



Sheet-Pan Shrimp With Tomatoes, Feta and Oregano image

Ready in 10 minutes, this Mark Bittman recipe from 2013 is a perfect weeknight recipe. It relies heavily on garlic, oregano and black pepper as a coating for the shrimp. Serve alongside a hearty salad or with a stack of flatbread for an easy meal. In his original piece, a roundup of shrimp recipes, he suggested wild shrimp from the Pacific or Gulf of Mexico, or fresh local shrimp from Maine or the Carolinas, if they're available to you. All, he wrote, are "preferable from a sustainability perspective."

SHEET-PAN BAKED FETA WITH BROCCOLINI, TOMATOES AND LEMON



Sheet-Pan Baked Feta With Broccolini, Tomatoes and Lemon image

When baked, feta gains an almost creamy texture, similar to goat cheese but with feta's characteristic tang. In this easy vegetarian sheet-pan dinner, broccolini (or broccoli), grape tomatoes and lemon slices roast alongside the feta until the broccolini crisp, the tomatoes burst and the lemon rinds soften. (Remember, broccolini has a tender, delicious stalk so only the bottom 1/2-inch needs to be trimmed.) Serve this dish over a pile of orzo for a complete meal. If you like, cut the broccolini, feta and lemon into bite-size pieces and toss with the orzo.

Categories     dinner, easy, lunch, weeknight, one pot, vegetables, main course, side dish

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 bunch broccolini, ends trimmed, thick stalks split lengthwise, or broccoli, stalks trimmed and cut into bite-size pieces
1 pint grape tomatoes, halved (about 2 cups)
1 small red onion, peeled, quartered and cut into 2-inch wedges
1 lemon, 1/2 cut into thin rounds and the remaining 1/2 left intact, for serving
3 tablespoons olive oil, plus more for serving
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon red-pepper flakes
Kosher salt and black pepper
2 (6- to 8-ounce) blocks feta, cut into 1-inch slices
Cooked orzo or farro, for serving
1/2 cup fresh basil or cilantro leaves and fine stems, roughly chopped (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 400 degrees with a rack set in the lower third. On a sheet pan, combine the broccolini, tomatoes, onion and lemon slices with the olive oil and toss. Add cumin and red-pepper flakes, season with salt and pepper, and toss again until evenly coated. Nestle the feta slices into the vegetables. (It's OK if they break apart a little.)
  • Roast 15 to 20 minutes, stirring halfway through but leaving the feta in place, until the broccolini is charred at the tips, the stems are easily pierced with a fork and the tomato skins start to blister and break down.
  • Serve over orzo or farro. Drizzle with olive oil and serve with the remaining lemon half for squeezing. Top with fresh herbs, if using.

ONE-POT ORZO WITH SHRIMP, TOMATO AND FETA



One-Pot Orzo With Shrimp, Tomato and Feta image

Inspired by a Greek appetizer, shrimp saganaki, this one-pot recipe adds orzo and grape tomatoes to make a complete meal. Blistering the grape tomatoes coaxes out their natural sweetness, which pairs well with the salty feta. For a vegetarian version, skip the shrimp and stir in some spinach or arugula at the end. Warm up leftovers by adding a splash of water to loosen the sauce, then drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with crumbled feta.

Provided by Yasmin Fahr

Categories     dinner, weekday, seafood, vegetables, main course

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 large garlic cloves, grated or minced (about 1 1/2 teaspoons)
4 tablespoons olive oil
2 teaspoons dried oregano
1 1/2 teaspoons red-pepper flakes, plus more for serving
Kosher salt and black pepper
1 pound shrimp, peeled, deveined and patted dry
1 pint grape or cherry tomatoes
1 cup orzo
1 (28-ounce) can crushed tomatoes
1/2 cup crumbled feta
1/2 cup roughly chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves and fine stems

Steps:

  • In a mixing bowl, combine half the garlic with 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 teaspoon dried oregano, 1 teaspoon red-pepper flakes and 1 teaspoon salt. Add the shrimp, coating it well.
  • In a large Dutch oven or heavy skillet with a tight-fitting lid, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons oil over medium. Add the tomatoes, season with salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until they start to blister, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the remaining garlic, 1 teaspoon oregano and ½ teaspoon red-pepper flakes, and stir until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
  • Add the orzo, stirring until lightly toasted, about 1 minute, then add the crushed tomatoes and 1 cup water. Season with salt, and use a wooden spoon to scrape up anything stuck on the bottom.
  • Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer. Cover and cook until just shy of al dente, stirring occasionally to make sure nothing is sticking to the bottom, about 10 minutes. Add the marinated shrimp on top, cover and cook until they are cooked through and the orzo is al dente, 4 to 6 minutes more.
  • Remove from the heat, divide among plates and finish with black pepper, feta and parsley. Serve with more red-pepper flakes, if desired.

SHEET-PAN FETA WITH CHICKPEAS AND TOMATOES



Sheet-Pan Feta With Chickpeas and Tomatoes image

In a spread of Greek appetizers, or meze, there's often a warm feta dish like bouyiourdi (baked feta with tomato and hot peppers) or a saganaki (fried cheese). This recipe combines elements of these two classic appetizers into a sheet-pan meal. Softened feta provides a salty, creamy counterpoint to sweet, juicy tomatoes and chickpeas that are sticky from honey and spicy from dried chile. Try this version, then riff wildly: Switch out tomatoes for mini peppers, olives, dates or cauliflower. Swap the hot honey for anchovies, harissa, smoked paprika or turmeric. Eat with pita, grains, salad greens, hummus or yogurt.

Categories     easy, beans, appetizer, main course

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 cups cooked chickpeas (homemade or two 15-ounce cans), drained, rinsed and shaken dry
2 pints (16 to 20 ounces) cherry or Sungold tomatoes
1 shallot, thinly sliced
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons honey
1 teaspoon mild chile flakes (like gochugaru) or ½ teaspoon red-pepper flakes
Kosher salt (such as Diamond Crystal)
2 (6- to 8-ounce) blocks of feta (see Tip), sliced 1-inch-thick

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 400 degrees. On a baking sheet, stir together the chickpeas, tomatoes, shallot, olive oil, honey and chile flakes. Season with salt, then spread in an even layer. Arrange the feta among the chickpeas. Roast until the feta and tomatoes are soft and the chickpeas are golden brown, 30 to 35 minutes (no need to stir). Eat right away. (The feta will harden as it cools; reheat leftovers.)

SHAKSHUKA WITH FETA



Shakshuka With Feta image

Shakshuka may be at the apex of eggs-for-dinner recipes, though in Israel it is breakfast food, a bright, spicy start to the day with a pile of pita or challah served on the side. (It also makes excellent brunch or lunch food.) It's a one-skillet recipe of eggs baked in a tomato-red pepper sauce spiced with cumin, paprika and cayenne. First you make that sauce, which comes together fairly quickly on top of the stove, then you gently crack each of the eggs into the pan, nestling them into the sauce. The pan is moved into the oven to finish. Shakshuka originated in North Africa, and like many great dishes there are as many versions as there are cooks who have embraced it. This one strays from more traditional renditions by adding crumbled feta cheese, which softens into creamy nuggets in the oven's heat.

HERBY SHRIMP-AND-FETA BAKE



Herby Shrimp-and-Feta Bake image

This shrimp bake gets the "low and slow" treatment in the oven, resulting in tender, perfectly cooked crustaceans without a hint of toughness. A saffron marinade and chopped fresh herbs up the elegance (and the flavor). Round it all out with creamy feta, and you have a sublime appetizer to serve with crusty bread.

Provided by Lauryn Tyrell

Categories     Food & Cooking     Appetizers

Time 1h5m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest, plus 1 tablespoon fresh juice
Kosher salt
Pinch of saffron

1/4 cup fresh parsley leaves, chopped, plus more for serving
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
4 ounces feta, drained and sliced
Crusty bread, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 250°F. Using a mortar and pestle, grind together lemon zest, 3/4 teaspoon salt, saffron, and sugar. Add lemon juice and let stand 5 minutes. Add garlic; mash to a paste. Mash in herbs, then 2 tablespoons oil.

Bake, spooning oil over shrimp occasionally, until shrimp are pink and cooked through, 25 to 30 minutes. Serve with more parsley and bread.

ROASTED FETA WITH HONEY



Roasted Feta With Honey image

A drizzle of honey and a blast of heat transform a standard block of crumbly feta into an unexpectedly luscious, creamy spread for pita and vegetables. This, with a hunk of crusty bread and a glass of chilled white wine, is the perfect warm weather supper. If you can't get your hands on thyme honey, the regular sort will do just fine.

Provided by Sara Dickerman

Categories     dinner, easy, for one, lunch, quick, weekday, dips and spreads, appetizer

Time 30m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 8-ounce slab Greek feta, blotted dry
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon Greek thyme honey, or other honey
Freshly ground black pepper
Greek-style pita bread, toasted and cut into wedges
Heirloom tomatoes, roasted beets, nuts or pickled vegetables (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Select a small oven-to-table earthenware dish or a small ovenproof sauté pan lined with aluminum foil to help transfer the cheese to a plate after roasting. Place the feta in the dish and cover with the olive oil. Bake until the cheese is soft and springy to the touch but not melted, about 8 minutes.
  • Preheat the broiler. Heat the honey in the microwave or over a pan of simmering water until it is fluid enough to be spread with a pastry brush and then paint the surface of the feta with it. Broil until the top of the cheese browns and just starts to bubble. Season to taste with black pepper. Serve immediately with pita wedges and, if desired, sliced heirloom tomatoes, roasted beets, nuts or pickled vegetables.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, succulent shrimp for the best flavor and texture.
  • Marinate the shrimp in the feta cheese mixture for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight, to allow the flavors to meld.
  • Bake the shrimp at a high temperature (425°F) for a short amount of time (10-12 minutes) to prevent them from becoming overcooked and tough.
  • Serve the shrimp immediately with the flavorful feta cheese sauce.
  • Garnish the shrimp with fresh herbs, such as parsley, dill, or cilantro, for an extra burst of flavor and color.

Conclusion:

Baked shrimp with feta is a quick and easy dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal or a special occasion. The shrimp are tender and juicy, and the feta cheese sauce is creamy and flavorful. This dish is sure to please everyone at your table. Here are some additional tips for making baked shrimp with feta:
  • If you do not have feta cheese, you can substitute another type of soft cheese, such as goat cheese or cream cheese.
  • You can also add other ingredients to the feta cheese sauce, such as chopped sun-dried tomatoes, olives, or capers.
  • Serve the shrimp with a side of rice, pasta, or vegetables.
