Instructions
  1. 1

    Preheat broiler

    Turn broiler on high.

  1. 2

    Build the sauce base

    In a large oven-safe skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add shallots (finely chopped) and cook 3-4 minutes until softened. Add garlic (finely chopped), oregano, and red pepper flakes and cook 1 minute until fragrant.

  2. 3

    Simmer the tomatoes

    Stir in the diced tomatoes with their liquid, white wine, salt, and pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Cook uncovered 8-10 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.

  3. 4

    Cook the shrimp

    Add shrimp to the skillet. Cook 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until shrimp turn pink and are cooked through.

  4. 5

    Add feta and broil

    Remove from heat and crumble feta over the top. Place skillet under the broiler for 2-3 minutes until the feta melts and browns in spots. Watch it closely — it goes fast.

  5. 6

    Finish and serve

    Scatter minced fresh parsley over the top. Serve straight from the skillet with crusty bread on the side.

Notes & Tips

This is a one-skillet dinner that looks fancy and takes 30 minutes. The broiler step at the end is non-negotiable — golden, slightly bubbly feta is completely different from cold cheese dumped on top. Buy a block of feta and crumble it yourself; the pre-crumbled stuff has an anti-caking coating and won't melt right. White wine works great here — if you happen to have ouzo, use it for a more authentic Greek flavor, but don't go out of your way.
