Ingredients

• 500 g large shrimp, peeled and deveined (tails on or off)
• 4 tbsp olive oil
• 1 medium onion, finely chopped
• 3 units garlic cloves, minced
• 120 ml dry white wine
• 400 g canned crushed tomatoes
• 1 tbsp tomato paste
• 1 tsp dried oregano
• 1 tsp dried thyme
• 1 tsp sugar
• 1 tsp salt
• 0.5 tsp freshly ground black pepper
• 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
• 100 g feta cheese, crumbled (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the shrimp in batches and cook on each side for 1-2 minutes until they turn pink. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

Step 2

Add the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil to the skillet. Sauté the chopped onion for 3-4 minutes until softened.

Step 3

Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for another 1 minute until fragrant.

Step 4

Pour in the white wine, scraping the bottom of the skillet to release any browned bits. Let it simmer for 2-3 minutes to reduce slightly.

Step 5

Add the crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, dried oregano, dried thyme, sugar, salt, and black pepper to the skillet. Stir well to combine.

Step 6

Reduce the heat to low and simmer the sauce for 15-20 minutes, allowing it to thicken and the flavors to meld together.

Step 7

Return the shrimp to the skillet and gently toss them in the sauce. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the shrimp are heated through.

Step 8

Remove the skillet from the heat and sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley. If desired, top with crumbled feta cheese for added flavor.

Step 9

Serve hot with crusty bread, rice, or over pasta for a satisfying meal.
