Pat the shrimp dry with paper towels and season them with 1 teaspoon of kosher salt and 1/2 teaspoon of ground black pepper. Set aside.
Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat until shimmering. Add the minced garlic and crushed red pepper flakes, stirring constantly, until fragrant (about 30 seconds).
Stir in the canned diced tomatoes (with juice), white wine, and dried oregano. Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens slightly.
Reduce the heat to low and stir in the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Nestle the shrimp into the sauce in a single layer and cook, turning once, until the shrimp turn opaque (about 2-3 minutes per side).
Remove the skillet from heat and sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese evenly over the shrimp and sauce. Cover the skillet with a lid and let it rest for 2-3 minutes, allowing the feta to soften slightly.
Garnish the dish with freshly chopped parsley and serve immediately with lemon wedges on the side for a burst of fresh citrus flavor. Optional: Serve alongside crusty bread, rice, or orzo for a complete meal.
