BAKED GREEK SHRIMP WITH TOMATOES AND FETA
This traditional Greek recipe disregards the notion that seafood and cheese don't mix, and it works beautifully, resulting in a harmonious balance of flavors. Though it can be made year round with canned tomatoes, it is sensational with fresh sweet ripe ones, so best prepared in summer. Serve it as a main course with rice or potatoes, or in small portions as an appetizer, taverna-style.

Tips:
- Use fresh shrimp: Fresh shrimp has a sweeter flavor and a more tender texture than frozen shrimp.
- Cook the shrimp properly: Shrimp cooks quickly, so it's important not to overcook it. Otherwise, it will become tough and rubbery.
- Use high-quality olive oil: Olive oil is a key ingredient in many Greek dishes, so it's important to use a good quality oil. Extra virgin olive oil has the best flavor and aroma.
- Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs, such as oregano, basil, and thyme, add a lot of flavor to Greek dishes. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but they won't be as flavorful.
- Don't be afraid to experiment: Greek cuisine is very versatile, so feel free to experiment with different ingredients and flavors. There are many different ways to make Greek shrimp with rigatoni, so find a recipe that you like and make it your own.
