Shrimp Saganaki

Greek Shrimp Saganaki made with shrimp simmered with tomatoes, briny olives and creamy feta. A quick healthy dinner for busy weeknights!

If you love shrimp and Feta cheese, you will love this Mediterranean shrimp recipe! Shrimp Saganaki is a great 30 minute meal with shrimp nestled in a vibrant tomato sauce, briny olives, lemon and creamy feta. A Mediterranean diet dish that is simple yet loaded with flavor. While the dish is traditionally prepared in a two-handled pan called a sagani, you don’t need any fancy equipment. I made mine in a regular skillet, and it turned out beautifully. That’s the beauty of this recipe—it’s approachable, flexible, and absolutely delicious.
