Now that we have all these tips on cleaning shrimp, here is a yummy way to cook them! It is from the 1997 Cooking Light Annual recipes. We had it for dinner tonight and really liked it.

Preheat oven to 400. Heat oil in a large dutch oven over medium heat until hot. Add garlic; saute 30 seconds. Add tomatoes and ¼ cup of the chopped parsley; reduce heat and simmer uncovered for 10 minutes. Add shrimp and cook 5 minutes. Pour mixture into a 13x9 inch baking pan; sprinkle with feta cheese. Bake at 400 for 10 minutes. Sprinkle with remaining parsley, lemon juice and pepper. Serves 6.
