This is a very tasty dish, provided you have fresh shrimps or at least well cultivated Atlantic shrimps. It is spicy and very rich as it combines the scent of the sea with feta cheese…odd? Well cuisine surprises us a lot! Also, instead of baking in the oven you can put this food in the pan and slowly fry it..it will add even better taste..but I avoid frying…
Ingredients: 300 gr of shrimps, 100 gr feta cheese, 1 chilli pepper or chilli paprika, salt, olive oil, lemon, 1 clove of garlic
Clean the body of the shrimps by taking off their skin (leave the head and tail on), the sand and the intestine on its back. Put them under the water to enhance cleaning.Put the shrimps in a bowl along with 2 tbsp of olive oil, the chopped chilli pepper, the chopped garlic, salt, lemon juice and mix well.
Put the shrimps on a tray, the one next to the other, and spread a few more drops of olive oil. Put them in a pre-heated oven in 200C for 10’. Take the tray out, turn them on the other side, spread the feta cheese in big pieces all over the shrimps, and re-put in the oven for another 10’.
Enjoy, preferably with ouzo.
