Lemon feta shrimp with orzo pasta
This dinner builds on a prepared orzo mix that arrives seasoned with scampi sauce and loaded with summer squash and tomatoes. You warm it through, add the shrimp, and finish with crumbled feta; a quick pan dish that tastes like you made time for the stove.

To buy
- 2 ounces Feta cheese
- 6 ounces Fresh shrimp
From your shelf
- 1 package Lemon feta shrimp mediterranean recipe (H-E-B)
Staples
- to taste salt
- to taste pepper
- Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Pat 6 ounces of shrimp dry with paper towels and lay them in the pan in a single layer without crowding; work in batches if needed. Cook for two minutes per side until pink and firm, then set aside on a plate.
- Pour the entire contents of the orzo package into the same skillet and stir over medium heat for three minutes until warmed through, scraping the bottom to loosen any fond.
- Return the shrimp to the skillet and fold in gently to combine. Taste and add salt and pepper as needed.
- Transfer to a serving bowl and crumble 2 ounces of feta cheese over the top just before serving.
Note Swap the shrimp for cooked white fish if preferred. Leftovers keep refrigerated for one day; gently reheat with a splash of water. Serve with a green salad or crusty bread to soak up the sauce.
