Just in time for summer, a light, fun recipe of shrimp tosed with feta cheese and roasted tomatoes, served on a bed of spinach atop a spread of couscous and luscious butternut squash sticks!

 

 

 

 

Tips:

In this recipe I deviate from the usual formula where the spinach would be the last ingredient added. I do this because sometimes spinach that touches the lid becomes browned, and although this doesn't bother me, some may find it unappetizing, so this technique keeps the spinach brighter.     
I get the best results when using frozen raw shrimp, though thawed raw shrimp will work as well.


 

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 450° F.
  2. Spray the inside of a cast iron Dutch oven and lid with olive oil.
  3. Drain the can of tomatoes into a measuring cup.
  4. Add water to get to 1/2 cup.
  5. Pour the couscous into the pot and add the tomato liquid. Swirl the pot to coat each grain and evenly distribute.
  6. Rough chop the fresh spinach or break apart a frozen block and pack into the pot.
  7. In a medium bowl, stir together the tomatoes, shrimp, parsley, lemon juice, and Feta, and pour into the pot.
  8. Cover and bake for about 45 minutes.
