Ingredients

5 scallions, chopped - use white/light green part only

1 med onion (or 3 shallots) finely chopped

1/4 c. olive oil

2 lb. tomatoes, peeled & coarsely chopped

1/3 C dry white wine

3 TB Chopped fresh parsley

3 TB Chopped fresh oregano

1 tsp. salt

1/4 tsp. freshly ground black pepper

2 cloves garlic

2 – 2 ½ lb. lg. raw shrimp (already shelled/deveined)

2 TB fresh lemon juice

1/2 lb. Greek feta cheese

Parsley leaves for garnish

Directions

PREHEAT THE OVEN to 450. Place the shrimp in a large bowl and pour the lemon juice over them. Toss and set aside.

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat, then cook the onion or shallots and scallions until translucent, about 8 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the tomatoes, wine, garlic, parsley and season with salt and pepper. Stir well, reduce the heat to low and simmer until dense, about 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in the fresh oregano.

Spoon some sauce into a large baking dish. Spread the shrimp around the dish and cover with the remaining sauce. Spread the feta cheese around, pushing the chunks of cheese down into the sauce. Place in the oven and bake until the shrimp are cooked and the cheese melted, about 20 minutes.

Remove from the oven and serve garnished with parsley leaves
