Mediterranean Seafood Pasta

SERVES: 4

COOK TIME: 35 Min

Don't you love making dishes that originated all around the world? We get to taste the flavors of a new place without leaving home. With this quick pasta dish, it's feta cheese, olives, and shrimp that bring a touch of Greece to our table.

What You'll Need

12 ounces angel hair (capellini) pasta
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 medium-sized red onion, chopped
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
3 tablespoons lemon juice
2 teaspoons garlic powder
1 pound large raw shrimp, peeled and deveined, tails left on (see Note)
1 (28-ounce) can whole tomatoes, drained and quartered
1 (2-1/4-ounce) can sliced black olives, drained
2 tablespoons dried oregano
1 teaspoon black pepper
1 cup (4 ounces) crumbled feta cheese

What to Do

In a 6-quart soup pot, cook pasta according to package directions; drain, rinse, drain again and set aside in colander.
In the same pot, heat oil over medium-high heat and saute onion 4 to 5 minutes, or until tender. Add vinegar, lemon juice, garlic powder, and shrimp; cook 3 to 4 minutes, or until shrimp are cooked through and pink. Add tomatoes, olives, oregano, and pepper. Return pasta to pot, stirring until thoroughly mixed and warmed through. Sprinkle with feta cheese, and serve.

Note

We like to leave the tails on the shrimp because they look better that way, but you can certainly take them off if you'd rather make this dish easier to eat.

Seafood pasta is a special change of pace dinner treat. If funds are short, I admit I have used the imitation crab, but no one seems to mind in this dish because the flavors are so wonderful. I also use the Mexican cheese, Queso Blanco, instead of feta. It's a crumbly, salty cheese, very mild, drier and saltier than ricotta.
