Ingredients

• 3 tablespoons Extra-virgin olive oil
• 1 pound Large shrimp (peeled and deveined, tails on or off as preferred)
• 3 units Garlic cloves (minced)
• 1 medium Yellow onion (finely diced)
• 14 ounces Crushed tomatoes
• 1 tablespoon Tomato paste
• 0.5 cups Dry white wine
• 0.5 cups Water or seafood stock
• 1 teaspoon Granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
• 0.5 teaspoons Red pepper flakes (optional)
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
• 4 ounces Feta cheese (crumbled)
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (chopped, for garnish)
• 4 units Lemon wedges (for serving)

Directions

Step 1

Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet or saucepan over medium heat.

Step 2

Add the shrimp in a single layer and cook for 1-2 minutes per side, until they just turn pink. Remove the shrimp from the skillet and set aside.

Step 3

In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil and lower the heat to medium-low.

Step 4

Sauté the onion for 3-4 minutes until soft and translucent, then add the minced garlic and cook for another minute, stirring frequently to avoid burning.

Step 5

Stir in the tomato paste and cook for 1 minute to deepen the flavor.

Step 6

Add the crushed tomatoes, white wine, water or seafood stock, sugar, dried oregano, red pepper flakes (if using), salt, and black pepper. Stir to combine.

Step 7

Bring the sauce to a gentle simmer and cook for 10-15 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and the sauce to thicken slightly.

Step 8

Return the cooked shrimp to the skillet along with any accumulated juices. Stir gently to coat the shrimp in the sauce and simmer for 2-3 minutes to heat through.

Step 9

Sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese over the top and cover the skillet. Turn off the heat and let the feta melt slightly, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 10

Garnish with fresh parsley and serve with lemon wedges on the side.
