Sizzling Shrimp Santorini Food

GREEK SHRIMP DISH FROM SANTORINI

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir in the garlic, chopped parsley, tomatoes, and wine. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to medium-low, and cook for 1 hour, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has slightly thickened.
• Preheat oven to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C).
• Stir the shrimp into the tomato sauce, and cook for 2 minutes; remove from the heat. Pour the shrimp mixture into a shallow baking dish, and sprinkle with crumbled feta cheese. Bake in the preheated oven until the feta has softened and the shrimp are no longer translucent, 45 minutes to 1 hour. Squeeze the lemon halves over the shrimp and garnish with the parsley sprigs to serve.

SHRIMP SANTORINI - BAKED SHRIMP WITH TOMATOES AND FETA CHEESE

Steps:

• Prepare shrimp by putting them into a mixing bowl with 1 tbs. olive oil, salt and pepper. Toss shrimp to coat. Pre-heat oven to 400 degrees. Put 4 tablespoons of olive oil in a medium skillet and turn on heat to medium. Add onion and a little salt and sweat until translucent. Add garlic and pepper. Stir until soft, a few minutes. Add tomatoes, oregano and red pepper flakes and sauté for 10 minutes. Turn out tomato mixture into a 9 x13 baking dish. Arrange shrimp over tomato mixture in one layer. Crumble cheese over surface. Bake for 10-12 minutes, until shrimp are a medium pinkish color and cheese is a bit browned. Don't overcook the shrimp. Remove from oven, garnish with fresh parsley.

SIZZLING CREPES WITH GRILLED SHRIMP

Steps:

• Whisk together flour, turmeric, coconut milk, 2 cups water, 2 tablespoons oil, and scallions until well combined. Allow batter to rest 30 minutes.
• Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a wok or skillet over high heat. Add shrimp and cook until opaque, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the bean sprouts and cook until just translucent but still firm, about 1 minute. Transfer to a platter and set aside.
• Heat 1 tablespoon oil in an 8-inch nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. While tilting the pan add 1/4 cup batter, swirling the pan at the same time to evenly distribute the batter. Once the crepe starts to bubble gently in the center and loosen itself at the edges, 3 to 5 minutes, add shrimp and bean sprouts, fold over one half of the lacy crepe, and slide onto a serving dish. Continue making crepes as you serve them.

• Deglaze the pan with sherry or lemon juice and season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve garnished with chopped parsley.

SIZZLING SHRIMPS

Steps:

• Heat the oven to its MAX!
• Put the olive oil in an individual oven proof dish (I use Spanish earthenware but anything capable of taking high temparatures will do).
• Heat the oil in the oven until smoking!
• Throw in all ingredients and stir quickly.
• Serve immediately whilst the dish is still sizzling- the shrimp is ready to eat as soon as it changes from blue to pink.
• Serve with lemon quarters and plenty of good bread to soak up the juices.
• This dish takes little time to prepare and virtually none to cook and has proved a huge success at dinner parties etc.
