Instructions
Make the Shrimp Saganaki:
Lightly season the shrimp on both sides with salt and black pepper.
Heat a skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil. Sear the shrimp 1 minute on each side and transfer them to a plate.
Add the tomatoes to the skillet and season lightly with salt and pepper. Cover the pan and let them cook until they blister.
Add the crushed red pepper flakes or a chili pepper and smash the tomatoes. Add some more olive oil if needed and the garlic and cook until the sauce thickens.
Alternatively, if you'd prefer using crushed tomatoes instead of the grape tomatoes, add them to the skillet after adding the garlic (for a few seconds until fragrant) along with the chili, salt and pepper. Cook until the sauce thickens.
Return the shrimp to the sauce. Crumble the feta into the sauce and add some pitted olives if desired. Warm through for 3-4 minutes and remove from heat. Top with scallions and set aside while the orzo is prepared.
Make the Orzo: Bring a pot of water to a boil and add 2-3 teaspoons of salt. Add the orzo and cook according to the package instructions al dente. Drain. Place a skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil and garlic. Warm through until fragrant. Add the cooked orzo with a quarter cup of lemon juice or as much as you like. Toss to coat the orzo and season with salt and pepper. Remove from the heat and add the parsley. Toss and transfer to the serving platter.
Top with the grated cheese and then with the shrimp saganaki.
Serve warm or room temperature. kali Orexi!
