Baked Shrimp with Feta Cheese

I am a recipe machine lately!

I had a major pasta craving last night and I had a bunch of fresh shrimp that I bought on sale. I stumbled upon this recipe and it seemed easy, delicious, and I had all the ingredients.

I mostly followed the recipe, but I made a few adjustments.

Baked Shrimp with Feta Cheese

Ingredients

• 1  teaspoon  olive oil
• 3/4  teaspoon  dried oregano
• 1/2  teaspoon  salt
• 1/4  teaspoon  crushed red pepper
• 1  pound  medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
• 3  garlic cloves, minced
• Cooking spray
• 1/2  cup  dry white wine
• 3  cups  diced plum tomato (about 3/4 pound) (I used canned tomatoes)
• 3/4  cup  (3 ounces) finely crumbled feta cheese
• 4  cups  hot cooked linguine (I used whole wheat penne)
• 1/4  cup  minced fresh parsley

Preparation

1. Preheat oven to 350°.
2. Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the oregano and the next 4 ingredients (oregano through garlic); sauté for 3 minutes. Spoon the shrimp mixture into an 11 x 7-inch baking dish coated with cooking spray.
3. Add wine to skillet; cook over low heat until reduced to 1/4 cup (about 3 minutes). Stir in tomato, and pour over the shrimp mixture. Sprinkle with cheese, and bake at 350° for 10 minutes. Serve mixture over pasta, and sprinkle with parsley.

I followed the recipe exactly except for using canned tomatoes instead of fresh, adding spinach to the skillet, and I used whole wheat penne instead of linguine. I also baked the mixture over the pasta to make it more of a baked ziti type dish. It was excellent.
