- 400 g Crushed tomatoes (canned)
- 1 tbsp Tomato paste
- 120 ml Dry white wine

Instructions
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the minced garlic and red chili flakes. Sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Stir in the tomato paste, followed by the crushed tomatoes and white wine. Mix well.
Season the sauce with oregano, salt, and black pepper. Let it simmer for 8-10 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and the sauce to thicken slightly.
Add the shrimp to the tomato sauce in a single layer. Cook for 2-3 minutes on one side, then flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until the shrimp are pink and opaque.
Sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese evenly over the shrimp and sauce. Cover the skillet with a lid and cook for 2 more minutes, allowing the feta to warm and soften.
Remove the skillet from heat and garnish with freshly chopped parsley.
Serve immediately with lemon wedges on the side. Pair with crusty bread or rice to soak up the flavorful sauce, if desired.
