Roasted Shrimp on Whipped Feta with Chermoula Sauce

August 18, 2024 by The Runaway Spoon Leave a Comment

Shrimp seem like such a summer special to me. Though I don’t summer at the beach or really live anywhere near a super fresh shrimp source.

Baked feta is all over the internet. And with good reason, heat turns one simple piece of salty cheese into a deliciously creamy element in a host of applications.  That baked feta pasta is about the only viral food trend that has appealed to me, and it is a good one.

I'm P.C. I think I am like most people. Somewhere in the middle between food snob and food schlub. Just being in the kitchen makes me happy. I live, mostly in my kitchen, in my hometown of Memphis, Tennessee.
