A perfectly easy and satisfying shrimp dish that has such a delicious combination of Mediterranean flavors. Easy enough for a weeknight dinner yet tasty enough to serve to guests on the weekend.

Instructions

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add in onion and saute until tender, about 4 - 5 minutes. Add garlic and saute 30 seconds longer.
Pour in tomatoes, honey, parsley, oregano and red pepper flakes and season with salt and pepper to taste.
Bring to a simmer then reduce heat to medium-low and continue to simmer, stirring occasionally, until sauce has thickened slightly, about 5 minutes.
Toss in shrimp and submerge in sauce. Cover and cook until shrimp are cooked through, tossing once halfway through, about 6 - 7 minutes total.
Sprinkle with feta and mint. Serve warm with lemon wedges for spritzing and cooked orzo or crusty bread if desired.
