Directions

  1. 1

    Pour water into a saucepan and bring to a boil. Add shrimp and cook for 5 minutes. Drain, reserving the cooking liquid.

  2. 2

    Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a saucepan. Add the onion and cook, stirring, until tender.

  3. 3

    Stir in the parsley, white wine, tomatoes, garlic, and the remaining olive oil. Simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until thickened.

    Add the shrimp to the sauce and simmer for 5 minutes. Stir in the feta and remove from heat. Let stand until the cheese begins to melt.

  6. 6

    Serve hot with slices of crusty bread.
