One clove of garlic for 1 1/2 pounds of shrimp? That has to be a typo. One head of garlic would be more like it.
Served this last evening for my wife's birthday. Used jumbo shrimp and grilled them - it was marvelous! This recipe is a keeper.
Instead of a garnish, I added cucumber and fresh parsley to the fresh tomatoes and feta and drizzled this with lemon juice and olive oil and served as a salad on the side.
Also served with grilled asparagus and baby bella mushrooms that I sauted with a little bacon.
Added a a baguette and a bottle of white wine, we savored the evening together!
This has become a favorite for entertaining. So little time in the kitchen. I put the shrimp in a baggie with the oil, garlic, lemon juice. oregano and pepper and leave it in the fridge until ready to cook. I cook for about 3 minutes total and don't bother to turn anymore as it's just as good. Thank you!
So delicious. There are so many fantastic grape tomato options now (e.g. Sugar Bombs), this dish tastes like summer even in the dead of winter. It’s a keeper.
I used 3 cloves of garlic and used cherry tomatoes sliced in half and threw them in the oven with the shrimp. It was delicious with warmed flatbreads.
I have made this outstanding (and dead-simple) recipe many times. Good enough for guests. There are several alterations that have made over the years. ~ I can't eat lemon, so instead of oil and lemon in the marinade, I use my basic vinaigrette. ~ Throw in the red pepper flakes as others have suggested. ~ Add a handful of small parboiled red potatoes cut in half. ~ More garlic Most Important! Cook all the ingredients together! The feta, tomato juices, and vin vinaigrette make a wonderful sauce.
