Shishito Sauteed Shrimp Recipe (video)
No fancy name for this one. Hubby sort of invented it on the fly based on things we had on hand and flavours we wanted to try together. This is a super simple recipe that takes almost no time at all, and comes together very quickly. The only thing you need to wait for is the shrimp to marinate briefly in the mixture of olives, hot pepper, and vermouth.
The feta cheese at the end really brings everything together in this dish. It adds a bit of richness, as well as a hint of sourness to balance the otherwise pretty round-flavoured dish. You can make this spicier or less spicy depending on the sorts of peppers you use. Shishito peppers are not very spicy at all, and they add a really lovely flavour to the whole thing. Just make sure to get the stem parts off. We just barely cooked them so they were just the tiniest bit soft, and they have a delightful crunch.

Sorry to bang this drum every time, but we've encountered some financial hardships (after I was laid off from my job near the beginning of the pandemic), and any help at all is greatly appreciated. https://www.patreon.com/loveyourfood
