Greek Shrimp Dish From Santorini
Shrimp Santorini is a Greek dish that's both simple to prepare and transports you to the idyllic Greek islands. My sister and I first enjoyed this meal at a restaurant in Santorini, Greece, where we were so captivated by its flavors that we returned for it three consecutive days. We carefully observed the ingredients and recreated it at home. You can prepare it in advance and bake it in the oven, ensuring your cooking is finished before guests arrive. It's best served over a bed of rice.
Ingredients
- ¼ cup butter
- 2 tablespoons garlic, minced
- 1 bunch flat-leaf parsley, chopped
- 2 pints grape tomatoes, halved
- ½ (750 milliliter) bottle dry white wine
- 2 pounds peeled and deveined medium shrimp
- 1 (4 ounce) container crumbled feta cheese
- 2 lemons, halved
- 2 sprigs fresh flat-leaf parsley
Instructions
- Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir in garlic, chopped parsley, tomatoes, and wine. Bring to a simmer; reduce heat to medium-low and cook for 1 hour, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has slightly thickened.
- Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C).
- Stir shrimp into tomato sauce and cook for 2 minutes; remove from the heat. Pour shrimp mixture into a shallow baking dish, sprinkle with crumbled feta cheese. Bake in the preheated oven until feta has softened and shrimp are no longer translucent, 45 minutes to 1 hour. Squeeze lemon halves over shrimp and garnish with parsley sprigs to serve.
