Quick and easy recipes are always welcome during the busy holiday season, but you can’t sacrifice taste. My Shrimp Stew with feta cheese is delicious and easy!

I love to serve this shrimp dish over Arborio rice or orzo, which is a rice shaped pasta. Both soak up the flavors of the stew and add a wonderful texture to the dish. The choice is yours. Either way you’ll have a wonderful meal that’s so good and so easy. Serve with salad and fresh bread for the perfect homemade meal.
