  4. Place skillet in preheated oven and cook for 10 minutes.
  5. After 10 minutes, add peppers and shrimp. Cook for another 10 minutes.
  6. Finally, add crumbled feta and cook for another 5 minutes. After 5 minutes, turn the oven to a Hi broil and broil for an additional 3 minutes, or until feta is golden. Remove from oven.
  7. Once skillet has cooled slightly, add tomatoes and cucumber. Serve with torn pita bread, if desired.
