This is a very good dish to make if you want something with a gourmet flair. It was very easy to make after a hectic day, and we were rewarded with a robust meal. The flavors worked well together, and the feta was a zesty addition. I served this with a crisp green salad, and Garlic Cheese French Bread. Thanks so much for sharing the recipe.

This is one of the best recipes I've made from Zaar. It was so quick and easy and SO delicious! I halved the recipe as it was just my husband and myself and used 1 14 oz. can of diced tomatoes. For the feta, I used a package of Athenos feta with basil and tomato that was already crumbled. Absolutely fantastic, I'm going to be doing this again, very soon. Thanks so much for the recipe!

This is a Great recipe! Bold seafood recipe that is anything but bland! Some seafood dishes tend to be on the boring side, this recipe was anything but that. The combination of fresh parsley, feta and lemon are very harmonious! I would have to say, this is one of the best shrimp recipes I've made! You will think so too after you try this!

This is a really nice recipe, luv4culinary. I made this for fiance and I this weekend and we both gobbled up the leftovers today. It has a nice Greek flavor (I did use fat free feta, which, surprisingly, was REALLY good!) and another small can of crushed tomatoes with some of the juice removed, just because I knew fiance would like it that way. We liked the lemon on it especially. Thanks for a fantastic recipe!

A family favorite that I have made for years in this household. Always a hit and always requested. I came back to this recipe on line to refer it to others on my Facebook page, and thought I'd say how wonderful it is. It's simple sauce is without frills, so wonderful on it's own - you just don't need to add all the extra stuff and fuss to have good food. The simple ingredients, when prepared properly are the sign of a true master in the kitchen.
