Ingredients
 
 

  • 1 Lbs. Large Shrimp, peeled, deveined and tail removed
  • 1 Tbsp. Plus 1 Tsp. Olive oil
  • 1 Tbsp. Butter
  • 1/2 Tsp. Dried oregano
  • 1/8 Tsp. Dried dill
  • 1/2 Tsp. Granulated garlic
  • 1/8 Tsp. Onion powder
  • 1/8 Tsp. Kosher Salt
  • 1/4 Tsp. Freshly grated black pepper
  • 1/4 Tsp. Calabrian chili flakes (optional)
  • 1 Tbsp. Fresh chives, chopped (optional garnish)

FETA SAUCE

  • 1/2 Cup Crumbled feta cheese
  • 3 Heaping Tbsp. Fat free Greek yogurt
  • 2 Tbsp. + Fresh lemon juice tablespoons
  • 1/4 Tsp. Smoked paprika

Instructions
 

  • Make the feta sauce by adding all the ingredients to a blender and process until smooth. Taste. If needed, add a little salt and pepper (be careful sense feta cheese can be salty). Add more lemon juice if needed to make the sauce thinner. Put to the side until ready to serve. (You can chill the sauce covered until serving if you are making in advance.)
  • Mix the oregano, dill, garlic, onion, salt and pepper in a small dish. Put the  shrimp in a bowl and add a teaspoon of olive oil. Toss the shrimp to coat. Then sprinkle the shrimp with the mixed seasoning. Toss to coat the shrimp.
  • Heat a large skillet over a medium high heat and add the tablespoon of olive oil and the butter and let melt and get hot.  Add the shrimp and cook for about 2 minutes and then flip the shrimp and cook another 2 minutes until the shrimp turn pink, and are cooked through.  Sprinkle with the chili flakes.
  • Spread the feta sauce onto a large serving plate or onto individual plates, and arrange the shrimp over the feta sauce.  Sprinkle with the chopped chives.  Serve with lemon wedges and baguette slices and enjoy.
