Shrimp á la Grecque

So in an attempt to eat at home more, I planned all my meals for a week and a half and bought all the groceries at once. I have four new receipts on the menu for this week. Saturday night's Pimento Cheese Stuffed Chicken was a bust:(  Too much citrus flavor I am told (thank your Clint and JoDee for being my guinea pigs).   So tonight on the menu a low calorie shrimp dish under 300 calories if served without the rice.

Ingredients:
2 Tbls olive oil
1 Tbls minced garlic
2 cups canned tomatoes, drained
2 Tbls finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
1/2 tsp dried marjoram, crushed
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
2 Tbls red pepper
1 1/2 lb large raw shrimp peeled
3 oz feta cheese, cut into 1/2" cubes
Rice

Preparation:
1.  Start rice.
2.  Hear oil in large skillet on medium.
3. Add garlic and reduce heat to medium-low.  Cook until garlic colors, stirring frequently.
4.  Add tomato, 1 Tbls parsley, marjoram, salt, pepper and red pepper.  Cook over medium-high heat       
     until sauce thickens. 
5.  Add shrimp; cook until pink.
6. Add feta stirring gently.
7. Serve hot over rice

Makes for a super tasty meal!
