Feta Shrimp Skillet

“On our honeymoon in Greece, my husband and I had a dish like this one. I tried to re-create the flavours in this recipe when we got home. When I make it now, it brings back such wonderful memories.” —Sonali Ruder, New York, New York

Recipe Notes

Test Kitchen Tips

  • For even more Mediterranean flavour, try adding 1/4 cup of chopped kalamata olives wiith the tomatoes.
  • This saucy dish is great served over rice or pasta. Zucchini noodles and spaghetti squash also make delicious bases, and are low-carb, too.
  • Like it spicy? Try adding a pinch of crushed red pepper with your other seasonings.
