Description
This Mediterranean Shrimp Recipe With Tomato Olive Relish is a quick, healthy weeknight dinner. It offers bold, fresh flavors from lemon, fresh herbs, tomatoes, and olives, perfect for busy parents and health-conscious eaters.
Ingredients
- 1 lb large shrimp, peeled and devined
- 1.5 cups cherry tomatoes, halved
- 0.5 cup Kalamata olives, pitted and chopped
- 0.25 cup red onion, finely diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 0.25 cup fresh parsley, chopped
- 3 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 1 lemon, juiced and zested
- 0.5 tsp salt
- 0.25 tsp black pepper
- pinch red pepper flakes
Instructions
- Prepare Relish: In a medium bowl, combine the halved cherry tomatoes, chopped Kalamata olives, finely diced red onion, minced garlic, fresh parsley, lemon juice, lemon zest, 2 tablespoons of olive oil, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes. Stir well until all ingredients are coated. Let this mixture sit for at least 10 minutes at room temperature to allow flavors to meld and deepen.
- Cook Shrimp: Heat a 10-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Once shimmering, add the shrimp. Sear for 1 to 2 minutes per side until they turn pink and opaque. If the pan is crowded, cook in two batches to ensure proper searing.
- Combine and Serve: Gently fold the freshly cooked shrimp into the prepared tomato olive relish. Toss briefly to combine, ensuring the warm shrimp absorb the relish’s flavors. Serve immediately for optimal taste.
Notes
For meal prep, the relish can be made up to two days ahead and stored in the fridge. To save time, use pre-minced garlic or pre-pitted olives. For a spicier kick, add more red pepper flakes or hot sauce. For a creamy texture, stir in Greek yogurt or tahini.
