Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- 1 pound raw shrimp (peeled and deveined )
- salt and pepper (to taste)
- ½ teaspoon chili flakes
- 1 medium onion (thinly sliced)
- 2 bell peppers, any color (seeded and sliced)
- 2 cups diced tomatoes (fresh or canned)
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 2 cloves garlic (minced)
- ¼ cup dry white wine (such as pinot grigio)
- ½ cup crumbled Feta cheese
- fresh basil (optional garnish )
Instructions
- Pre-heat a large, deep skillet over medium-high heat. Pat shrimp dry with a paper towel and sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste.
- Add olive oil to pan then place shrimp in a single layer. Cook until shrimp are pink, about 3 minutes per side, flipping once; remove from pan, and set aside.
- To the hot pan, add the sliced onions, peppers, garlic, and another pinch of salt and pepper. Saute until peppers and onions are tender and slightly caramelized, about 7-9 minutes, stirring frequently.
- Return shrimp to the pan and add white wine. Use a wooden spoon to deglaze the bottom of the pan and continue to heat until alcohol burns off a bit, about 60 seconds.
- Stir in tomatoes, oregano and chili flakes if using. Saute for another 2 minutes or until tomatoes are warmed through. Sprinkle with feta cheese and basil before serving.

Notes
- You can tell shrimp is done when it is bright pink and opaque, and it cooks fairly quickly. Overcooked shrimp will be a bit dry and tough.
