One-Pan Mediterranean Bake with Spot Prawns, Tomatoes, and Feta
December 9th, 2021A Satisfying, Home-Cooked Meal Without All the Fuss
This one-pan spot prawn bake is full of robust, Mediterranean-inspired flavors that you can build from pantry staples and a few other ingredients you might have in your fridge right now. It’s perfect for weeknights when you’re craving a satisfying home-cooked meal, but don’t want to spend too much time prepping and cleaning up.
Onions, garlic, oregano, and thyme are the aromatic foundation of this bake, transforming a humble can of tomatoes into a simple but flavorful sauce.
You’ll start the sauce on the stovetop but finish it in the oven — where it will continue to bubble away, topped with spot prawns and salty-creamy crumbled feta cheese. The final flourish is plenty of fresh parsley for a bright, herbaceous hit and appealing contrast of colors. Alternatively, try using wild Alaska pollock quick cuts in this meal.
The finished bake is wonderful with a side of crusty bread. Or, try spooning it as a sauce over orzo or your choice of whole grain.
