• 1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
• 2 tablespoons olive oil

• 0.25 teaspoons crushed red pepper flakes
• 1 14-ounce can diced tomatoes (canned, with juices)

📝 Instructions

10 steps

1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).

2. Heat the olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened.

3. Stir in the minced garlic and red pepper flakes, cooking for about 30 seconds until fragrant.

4. Add the canned diced tomatoes (with their juices) and dried oregano. Stir to combine and let the sauce simmer for about 5-7 minutes until slightly thickened.

5. Season the sauce with salt and black pepper. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.

6. Remove the skillet from heat and gently stir in the shrimp, ensuring they are evenly coated in the sauce.

7. Sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese evenly over the shrimp and tomato mixture.

8. Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the shrimp are pink, opaque, and fully cooked through.

9. Remove the skillet from the oven and garnish with chopped fresh parsley.

10. Serve warm with lemon wedges on the side, if desired. This dish pairs well with crusty bread, rice, or a simple side salad.
