Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- ½ medium red onion minced
- 6 cloves garlic minced
- 4 cups cherry tomatoes cut 1 cup in half and leave the others whole
- 2 teaspoons honey
- 1 teaspoon Greek seasoning blend see notes
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- ½ teaspoon chili flakes
- 1 ½ lb Shrimp
- 4 ounces feta cheese
- ¼ cup chopped parsley
- 1 tablespoon lemon zest
Instructions
- Heat the olive oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. And the onion and saute it until it turns translucent. Stir in the garlic, cherry tomatoes, honey, Greek seasoning, salt, and chili flakes.
- Heat the sauce until the tomatoes release some of their liquid and start to simmer then lower the heat to medium and continue to cook, uncovered, for 12-15 minutes, until the tomatoes are thick and jammy. Use a wooden spoon to gently squish any whole tomatoes that haven't burst.
- Add the shrimp and stir them into the tomato sauce. Cook the shrimp for 2-3 minutes, just until they turn opaque.
- Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the feta cheese, parsley, and lemon zest.
Notes
- Our homemade Greek seasoning blend is made with seven pantry-staple spices. In a pinch, you can substitute ½ teaspoon of each dried basil and dried oregano.
