This is another quick, easy, delicious dish, inspired by Everyday Food Magazine. The original recipe was part of a two days, two meals type of menu, where sauce made on the first day is reserved and used the next day in a different dish. I wasn't making the first meal in this series, so I adapted the recipe to work with what I had on hand. The dish came together in the time it took the broiler to heat up, and then baked in about 10 minutes - perfect for a hectic day or when you just don't want to spend a lot of time in the kitchen. We served it with steamed broccoli.
I had to broil mine a little longer than the recipe suggested to cook the shrimp, so my feta got a little... black in the process. In the recipe below, I've adjusted the instructions to add the feta after the shrimp have baked for a few minutes, to keep it from burning. Between the capers, olives, and feta, the dish is on the salty side, so cut back on those ingredients if that's a concern for you.
