In a pot boil the shrimp for about 4 minutes in plenty of water. Remove from water and save at least 2 cups of water
In another deep pan or pot heat the olive oil and sauté the garlic until fragrant about 1 minute. Add the shrimp and sauté for about 2 more minutes.
Add the shot of ouzo and sauté for another 2-3 minutes.
Add the tomatoes, and let it come to a boil.
Now add the 2 cups of the water from the shrimp, the orzo, ½ teaspoon of salt, pepper, the parsley and basil.
Let it simmer until the orzo has absorbed all the water (about 10 minutes) and is soft like a risotto. Check often and add more water as needed.
Serve with crumbled feta on top or you can mix the feta in the whole dish.
