Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb large shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 yellow onion, finely chopped
- 1 can canned diced tomatoes (14 oz)
- 0.5 cup white wine
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- 0.5 tsp crushed red pepper flakes

- 4 oz feta cheese, crumbled
- 0.5 tsp salt
- 0.25 tsp black pepper
- 4 lemon wedges (for serving)

Instructions
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the minced garlic and chopped onion to the skillet. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until the onion is softened and translucent.
Pour in the canned diced tomatoes (with juice) and white wine. Stir to combine.
Sprinkle in the dried oregano, red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper. Allow the mixture to simmer for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened.

Reduce the heat to low and sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese over the top. Cover the skillet and let the cheese melt slightly (about 2 minutes).
Remove from heat and sprinkle the fresh parsley over the dish.
Serve hot with lemon wedges on the side. Pair with cooked rice or crusty bread, if desired.
