- 1 lb. shrimp (fresh or frozen, peeled and deveined)
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 medium onion
- 4 cloves garlic
- 1 28 oz can diced or crushed tomatoes
- ½ cup feta cheese
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp pepper
- 1 tsp red peper flakes (adjust to spicey preference)
- 1 tbsp fresh parsley
- 1 tbsp fresh dill
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
Coat a large cast-iron skillet (or oven safe saute pan) with olive oil and heat over medium to high heat on the stovetop.
Dice the onion and mince the garlic.
Add the onions to the pan and saute for about 2 minutes.
Next, stir in the garlic and cook for 1 minute.
Add the tomatoes, salt, pepper, oregano and red pepper flakes and bring to a simmer. (You may need to cover with a lid in case the tomatoes start to splash) Cook for about 10-20 minutes until the sauce starts to thicken.
Next, add in the shrimp. You can leave the tails on if you prefer but we removed them for this recipe. Stir for a few minutes and top with feta cheese.
Then add the pan (uncovered) into the oven and bake for about 10 minutes or until the shrimp are fully cooked and the cheese begins to melt. Serve immediately, top with additional feta cheese if desired.
