Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to bake shrimp with cheese? Prepare all the necessary products. Remove the shrimp from the freezer and leave at room temperature until completely thawed. When I need to defrost shrimp quickly, I fill them with cool water, after 20-30 minutes I drain the water, and dry the crustaceans with paper towels.

Step 2

Step 2
Peel the onion and garlic. Cut off the tails of the beans. If using mature pods, remove the tendrils from the sides. Rinse the lemon, onion and garlic. Chop the pickled cheese into small pieces using your hands or a knife.

Step 3

Step 3
Peel the shrimp from the shells, remove the heads and tails. Remove the vein from the back of each crustacean. Dry the shrimp meat with napkins.

Step 4

Step 4
Place the shrimp in a deep plate or other container. Add olive or any odorless vegetable oil, squeeze half a lemon, salt and pepper. Chop the garlic with a knife or pass through a press and place on a plate. Mix everything thoroughly and leave to marinate for 5-10 minutes.

Step 5

Step 5
At this time, pour boiling water over the bean pods and leave it like that for a couple of minutes. If the beans are not very young, then throw them into boiling water and cook for one or two minutes, then they will be softer in the finished dish.

Step 6

Step 6
Spread green beans in an even layer in the bottom of the baking dish.

Step 7

Step 7
Place marinated shrimp on top, as well as onions, pre-cut into not very thin feathers. For a more appetizing look of the finished dish, I used red onion, but you can use regular onion. Spread the marinade left over from the shrimp over the food.

Step 8

Step 8
Place the pan in a preheated oven and bake for about 10 minutes at a temperature of 180-200 degrees on the “top-bottom” mode. The baking time may increase slightly; focus on the shrimp; they should turn red and curl into rings. Remove shrimp from oven and immediately sprinkle with cheese. While the dish is hot, the cheese will melt slightly, which will add a special twist to the shrimp and vegetables. Scatter the olives over the cheese and shrimp. Sprinkle the dish with herbs.

Step 9

Step 9
If desired, sprinkle with more lemon juice and lightly pepper before serving. Ready!
