Description
Original recipe from me- tried to copy a recipe from a restaurant we went to in Florida while we were visiting Mom and Dad on their mission.
Jennifer Crites: We do this with shredded chicken instead of shrimp. The chicken recipe comes from Deb and Paty. I've added it at the bottom of this recipe.
Ingredients for 10 servings
- 1 chopped onion
- .25 cup butter
- 2.5 tbsp Greek seasoning
- .5 cup olive oil
- 1 bunch chopped fresh basil
- 1.5 lbs fresh peeled large shrimp
- 3 large juiced lemons
- 1 package crumbled feta cheese
- 2 large chopped fresh tomatoes
- .5 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
- 2 packages fresh angel hair pasta
- 3 cloves minced fresh garlic
Chicken Version
- 6 chicken breasts
- 2 tsp dried oregano leaves
- 6 cloves garlic, crushed
- Adobo with Cumin Seasoning (the one with the green lid)
- Limes
Steps
- Saute onion in butter until soft. Add olive oil, shrimp, 2-3 cloves of garlic minced, and Greek seasoning, and saute until shrimp are pink. Add lemon juice and chopped fresh basil. Remove from heat. Cook pasta according to directions. Drain. Place in a large flat dish. Crumble feta cheese over the top of pasta. Sprinkle chopped tomatoes over feta cheese, and then top with the shrimp mixture. Sprinkle with Parmesan and serve.
- Chicken Recipe: Place the chicken in hot olive oil and generously shake Adobo seasoning over each piece. Sprinkle the oregano and garlic over the chicken as well. Squeeze several limes over the chicken as it is cooking. Brown one side and turn, add more Adobo seasoning. Cover and turn temperature down to finish cooking. Add water as needed to avoid scorching. When done, shred meat and use instead of the shrimp.
