Time 1h

Yield 4 servings

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
1 tablespoon Pernod
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 1/4 pounds (16 to 20 per pound) peeled shrimp with tails on
5 ounces good feta cheese, coarsely crumbled
1 cup fresh bread crumbs (see note)
3 tablespoons minced fresh parsley
1 teaspoon grated lemon zest
2 lemons

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
  • Heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil in a 10-or 12-inch heavy ovenproof skillet over medium-low heat. Add the fennel and saute for 8 to 10 minutes, until the fennel is tender. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute. Add the wine and bring to a boil, scraping up any browned bits. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, until the liquid is reduced by half. Add the tomatoes with the liquid, tomato paste, oregano, Pernod, salt, and pepper to the skillet. Simmer over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, for 10 to 15 minutes.
  • Arrange the shrimp, tails up, in one layer over the tomato-mixture in the skillet. Scatter the feta evenly over the shrimp. In a small bowl, combine the bread crumbs, parsley, and lemon zest with the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil and sprinkle over the shrimp.
  • 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."

BAKED GREEK SHRIMP WITH TOMATOES AND FETA



Baked Greek Shrimp With Tomatoes and Feta image

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.

Categories     lunch, salads and dressings, appetizer

Time 45m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

Extra-virgin olive oil
3 large shallots, diced, about 1 cup
4 garlic cloves, minced
Salt and pepper
2 pounds large ripe tomatoes
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1 1/2 pounds large shrimp, peeled and deveined
4 ounces Greek feta cheese
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
2 tablespoons roughly chopped mint

Steps:

  • Put 4 tablespoons olive oil in a wide skillet over medium heat. Add shallots and garlic, season with salt and pepper and cook, stirring, until softened, about 5 to 8 minutes. Lower heat as necessary to keep mixture from browning. Remove from heat while preparing tomatoes.
  • Fill a saucepan with water and bring to a boil. Add whole tomatoes and cook for about 2 minutes, until skins loosen. Immediately plunge tomatoes in a bowl of cold water to cool, then drain. With a paring knife, core tomatoes and slip off skins. Cut tomatoes into thick wedges.
  • Heat oven to 400 degrees. Return skillet to stove over medium-high heat. Add tomato wedges and season with salt, pepper and red pepper flakes. Cook, stirring, until mixture is juicy and tomatoes have softened, about 10 minutes. Transfer mixture to a shallow earthenware baking dish.
  • Put shrimp in a mixing bowl. Add 1 tablespoon olive oil, season shrimp with salt and pepper and stir to coat. Arrange shrimp over tomato mixture in one layer. Crumble cheese over surface and sprinkle with oregano.
  • Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, until tomatoes are bubbling and cheese has browned slightly. Remove from oven and let dish rest for 5 minutes. Sprinkle with mint and serve.

SHRIMP AND GRITS WITH ROASTED TOMATO, FENNEL AND SAUSAGE



Shrimp and Grits With Roasted Tomato, Fennel and Sausage image

Provided by Sam Sifton

Categories     dinner, main course

Time 1h30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 25

8 plum tomatoes, halved lengthwise
1 garlic clove, minced
2 tablespoons olive oil
Salt
black pepper
1 large fennel bulb, trimmed fronds reserved and cut into thin wedges
2 to 3 cups vegetable or shrimp broth or water
1 tablespoon butter
Salt
Ground white pepper
1 cup coarse corn grits, soaked overnight if necessary see package instructions
Salt
1 fresh bay leaf
1 1/2 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon cream cheese
Ground white pepper
1/2 teaspoon lemon juice, or to taste
1/2 teaspoon hot sauce, or to taste
1 tablespoon olive oil
20 large shrimp, peeled and deveined
1 cup cooked and crumbled Benton's smoked sausage or other smoked breakfast sausage
1 teaspoon lemon juice, or to taste
Hot sauce
Salt
2 tablespoons chopped parsley

Steps:

  • For the roasted tomato: heat oven to 450 degrees. Toss tomato halves in a bowl with garlic, olive oil, salt and pepper. Transfer, cut side up, to a baking sheet. Roast until collapsed and lightly browned, 25 to 30 minutes, and set aside.
  • For the fennel: In a small saucepan, combine the fennel, half of the reserved fronds, and just enough broth or water to cover. Add butter and season with salt and white pepper. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to very low, and simmer until tender when pierced by a fork, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer fennel to a plate, discard cooked fronds and reserve cooking liquid.
  • For the grits: Follow package instructions for cooking the grits, seasoning with salt to taste, and adding the bay leaf halfway through cooking. At the end of cooking, mix grits with butter, cream cheese, white pepper, lemon juice and hot sauce. Adjust salt as needed. About 15 minutes before the grits are finished cooking, prepare the shrimp and assemble the dish.
  • For shrimp and assembly: Place a large sauté pan over medium heat, and add the oil. When the oil is shimmering, add the shrimp in a single layer. When they are seared on one side, about 1 minute, turn them to sear on the other side. Add fennel, sausage, roasted tomatoes and 1 1/2 cups of the reserved fennel cooking liquid. Bring to a simmer and season with lemon juice, hot sauce and salt. If the mixture seems dry, add more fennel cooking liquid as desired. Add chopped parsley, and toss to mix.
  • To serve, place equal portions of grits on four rimmed plates or shallow soup plates. Divide the shrimp stew among the plates, garnish with remaining fennel fronds and serve.
