Instructions

  1. Heat the oil in a sauté pan over medium heat. Sweat the onions, chile pepper and garlic, but do not brown. Add the shrimp and cook for 1 minute to color lightly.
  2. Add the tomatoes and feta and stir gently. Add the lemon zest and ouzo. Simmer until you've cooked off the alcohol, 5 to 8 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  3. Garnish with pepper and a little chopped cilantro and serve.
