Greek Shrimp Saganaki: Shrimp in a Tomato & Feta Sauce

[@katc2345]

I was,Greek in another life. Lol. I worked for Greeks for,years and I think its the most delicious food in the world and Im half Italian! Lol! I love this dish and Greek people know seafood! My old boss was from Mykonos and he used to pull me aside and say come on, you eat with us! I sat down to a huuuge whole fish that had been cooked with spices and lemon and big beautiful chunks of the white fish was put on my plate with a killer tasting rice that had tomatoes and herbs and Im telling you, they prepared a meal worthy of the Gods! Im gonna make this shrimp, as Im a fanatic for a really good feta. Thank you for the vid, great job!

OMG I was introduced to Prawn Saganaki when we were on holiday in Greece So delicious and a dessert galaktoboreko I think that’s how it’s spelt Watching this video making my mouth water….and fond memories of Greece

[@brankosmilkov5759]

Made it first time last week, and I am making it again today. It tastes wonderful! Thank you.

[@jeremyphillips7827]

I think garides saganaki was the very first Greek dish I ever cooked, back in 1999, but I added kalamata olives and didn't know about the lemon juice. Every variation is delicious. Thanks for sharing this video!

[@rm7095]

Made this for the family. My father who is pretty picky with new dishes commented how good it was. It makes a delicious presentation too. Love the recipe and video. This definitely will be put in rotation.

[@DimitrasDishes]

I love how quick it comes together. Thanks for watching!

[@japanesefunnyshorts8584]

Was searching for what to do with leftover feta, shrimp and tomato sauce because they were all I have in the fridge, and came across this video. Best youtube reco ever!! I didn't know feta can taste that good! I normally have it cold on salads/wraps and it's my first time to eat it charred and melted, and holy cow, my mind was blown. This recipe will definitely be a mainstay in my cooking repertoire cause I'm trying to stay away from red meat, so thank you so much! Much love from NZ😘

Great recipe! I made the chicken giouvetsi last weekend and turned out great!!! I had it at a bed and breakfast in Athens when I visited a few years ago and it left a great impression on me and wanted to try those flavors again! Thank you.

[@lestascorpion]

Tried this in crete... was delicious...am gonna try this... thanks

[@faithopelove_]

Another winner Dimitra thank you! I added the red capsicum, olives and spring onion as you suggested and served with rice and bread with taramasalata ...... yum! :)

[@annacollings1120]

Fabulous as always

[@esrajp]

I tried this today, delicious!

[@DimitrasDishes]

So happy you enjoyed it :)

[@malcolmlewis5860]

For some reason scallions are known as Spring onions in Australia. Shrimp are called prawns here. Nice recipe.

[@DimitrasDishes]

I've heard that. Thanks :)

[@carolthomas8528]

Malcolm Lewis We use exactly the same words in U.K. I wonder why ! It must have something to do with frantic semantics .

[@rcsouth]

Yummy, thanks for the video.

[@sternschnuppe5130]

And i am proud to be Greek 🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷

[@garygolden5262]

I like to use a 16 oz. Can of fire roasted tomatoes drained,and add a splash of ouzo, with scallion added last with all the ingredients.

You have a happy husband my dear..lol Great reciepe again to try....

Very well presented and Dimitra has really kept it simple, may she work at underground restaurant.com.au any time

[@slaps1455]

If you’re using canned tomatoes, you don’t need sugar. Tomatoes are usually canned when they’re over ripen right before they turn. It’s when they’re at their most sugary state. Let them simmer on low an extra 20 minutes. Don’t add sugar.

[@mike1968442]

Smart Woman there! I only eat wild caught fish too.

[@Fresh_Baklava]

You will make an awesome Yiayia one day! Ευχαριστώ!

[@michaelnoyola7971]

LOL...pregnancy mom brain; just waiting for her to forget to add the shrimp to the recipe... it's like watching NASCAR waiting for the crash!

[@MrRobertsap]

Hi Dimitra what do you mean by a boiler? Oven or grill?

[@annebruce5135]

I always find it awkward to devein the prawns, i do it not on the back but on the underbelly. Have found I have to dig deep to do it on the bakc of prawn. Can you advise as to how to? Thanks am making the chicken saganaki this weekend.

[@davidrobinson577]

wow... May I try it?

[@DimitrasDishes]

Absolutely! You'll be missing out if you don't :)

[@allthings2allmen]

This one's on my list...I must say, if they have any Greek restaurants in Nagasaki, I do think Japanese would be rather keen to this dish in particular! Many a far asian palette does not care for cream or cheese in general, but perhaps this is changing? It has certainly been true for a very long time. (I'm sure my Asian friends would have to agree.) A thought about Mexican cheeses I believe they are perhaps just as Greek influence as other...at any rate I think they would make wonderful greek dishes. Availability is the issue though.

[@massimograssia7706]

Jason Gardner Anagrammatically, it seems obvious to me that people in Nagasaki will love saganaki!

[@nofovos]

before you add tomato add Ouzo small cap wait till alcohol go then drop tomato :) after tomato 1-2 Pimpinella anisum is optional but give more aroma .... yes not need to add much salt because Feta has a lot :)

[@johnbarnham6744]

I love your recipe and your videos. But I have to ask what is that song in the intro of this video?

[@zpt43]

Please tell me when I go to buy shrimp what kind I should buy.

[@DimitrasDishes]

Anything that is not farm raised :)

[@christopheaprocopis2089]

What do you mean by putting the dish in broiler or boiler towards the end. Forgive my ignorance. Do you mean oven my any chance.

[@heathergarcia8331]

What is the goo brand of sheep's feta cheese that you mentioned? I couldn't find it online.

[@DimitrasDishes]

Kolios and Dodonis are my faves!

[@rachelstark2391]

The shrimp you used, is that raw?

[@sdmarciano19]

Love the videos!! What's the name of the feta you use? I am sure they'll sell it at Titan :)

[@DimitrasDishes]

thank you! my favorite is Dodonis, but any sheep's milk feta will be great.

[@stever7627]

He served that hot ass skillet with his bare hand? BY THE GODS!

[@mattrenaud8426]

yes farm raised is yucky.. I studied aquaculture in school . farm raised salmon or shrimp is NOT good... happy that you agree

[@malviprakash511]

What species of shrimp have you used? or common name?

[@heatheryovanoff6361]

In Greece they eat it just like that with crusty bread. No pasta !

[@smitsony179]

if you must know , these are prawns . shrimps are smaller .

No Ouzo?

@@DimitrasDishes Thank you Dimitra … I guess covering the Pan while cooking do the same trick. Excellent dish by the way.

[@emmaw.6872]

..farm-raised seafood may seem unromantic but it's likely healthier for you; the ocean is polluted with chemicals, waste, & sewage. Our rate of fishing is destroying species & lowering quality standards & raising prices

[@DimitrasDishes]

It depends how the farming is done. I stay away from seafood for the most part due to overfishing...

[@jpbours]

FDA aprooved seafood ensures no antibiotics. and I agree with Emmy Blonde, farmed seafood is protecting natural fisheries, if done responsably.

[@katc2345]

Thats very true and I just saw a tv show about that recently.

How can you make saganaki without ouzo??? Hmmm

they are prawns not shrimp

[@adschoonen1351]

Thx but 2 comments, 1. Talk less and make the video 4 to 5 minutes. 2. Flambe the prawns with ouzo before you making the sauce. This way you will get the Greek taste

Are you even Greek lmfao
