This is an awesome and easy seafood dish. Seafood Yiouvesti is a classic Greek meal consisting of a variety of delicious seafood and orzo cooked in a warmly spiced tomato sauce. Many people say the texture of the dish reminds them of risotto, which is true because they are so similar. The pasta and seafood are stirred together to make a one-bowl meal. I like this dish because it's a novel way to serve seafood, and works especially well in cooler months we don't want to grill.

A lot of people love seafood salad, but are intimidated by the thought of making it at home. Today I'm here to help you set aside all your fears so this is no longer the case! This is the Cold Seafood Salad recipe I've made for years and I'm filming it for you so you can see exactly how I do it. The seafood I use in this recipe is octopus, shrimp, and calamari. They're abundant in Greece, which is where this recipe originates from. If you want to add or supplement the seafood

Crab Stuffed Shrimp is such a fun seafood recipe. I like to make it in the summer when we're all in the mood for seaside-style meals. The best part is it's one of those elegant dishes that looks fancy but is actually quite easy to make. This is why I made this episode for you - to show you exactly how you can make a tray of these right in your own kitchen. Shrimp and crab have lovely, light flavors and don't need too many additions to taste amazing, which keeps the preparatio

I love sheet pan dinners because they make a meal so efficient. The ingredients are cooked on the same pan and the clean-up is so incredibly easy! This Shrimp with Fennel & Chickpeas is one of those sheet pan meals that sounds like it would be complicated because to the multiple ingredients, but it’s actually simple because it’s made on one single pan. This recipe begins with preparing the ingredients in their bowls. Make sure everything is tossed evenly with the marinade s

There’s something so satisfying about a cool, protein-rich salad in the warmer months. This Creamy Shrimp Salad with Crunchy Vegetables is one of those salads. When the days heat up, I am less inclined to make lots of hot food, especially mid-day. I find that my catering clients often prefer cool salads for lunches for the same reason. This is when I turn to make shrimp salads and chicken salads with lots of fresh vegetables. I love this particular recipe because it’s a whol

I love the new trend of bowl-style meals. The idea is that there are a lot of ingredients in one bowl and a beautiful dressing unifies all the flavors. Then, all the ingredients are mixed together and eaten bite by bite, instead of remaining separate on a plate. Bowl recipes typically have lots of ingredients and taste wonderful because the ingredients are picked to complement one another with each bite. I like to top them with a protein like chicken or shrimp to make them in

These Herbed Grilled Shrimp Skewers are the most flavorful way to eat and cook shrimp in the summer. I like to make them in the warmer months because I can very easily prepare them in advance during the day by placing them in their marinade in the fridge until it’s time for dinner. I typically soak the bamboo skewers before I’m ready to grill them and place the pre-marinated shrimp on the skewers while the grill is warming up. The nice thing about this marinade is that it’s m

We love a good sheet pan meal in our house. There is nothing better than really being able to make an entire meal in one fell swoop. Also, it always seems kind of amazing to me that the asparagus and shrimp cook perfectly evenly every single time. Roasting asparagus is one of my favorite ways to prepare it. I like how it tenderizes the vegetables without making it too watery. Similarly, when I use this method, the shrimp are always cooked to the perfect tenderness without bei

As parents we all need a few back-pocket recipes. These are the dishes that are truly free of controversy at the dinner table. For my family one of those recipes is Shrimp Scampl. This is a classic recipe that I’ve worked on perfecting over the years and make several times a month. My kids will eat it and it always turns out beautifully. When I say it is simple and easy to get on the table, I really mean it. Just watch!. The key to shrimp scampi is to keep it simple. I start

This is a cool new appetizer I made recently and I just had to share it. It’s a jumbo shrimp wrapped in shredded phyllo dough with a yummy olive aioli to dip it in. These are a blast to make and everyone who eats them loves them. I based this on the concept of a wrapping savory foods in phyllo, which is fairly common in Greek cooking. As you’ve seen, we often make triangles stuffed with all kinds of yummy savory fillings https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TrrncLx77CE The cool pa

Today I’m sharing my Greek Shrimp Wrap, a yummy sandwich we used to serve at our Greek restaurant that was extremely popular with our customers. The beauty of this sandwich is that it’s very easy to make fresh and it’s not too heavy. It is nice and hearty in the warmer months, which makes it a great lunch or light dinner. I serve it with a Greek salad or french fries (or both!) on the side To make the wrap you must first begin by marinating the shrimp. This step is critical b
