Step by Step Method
Step 1
Bring about 2 inches of water to a boil in a large saucepan. Add the shrimp, the water should just cover them. Boil for 5 minutes, then drain, reserving the liquid, and set aside.
Step 2
Heat about 2 tablespoons of oil in a saucepan. Add the onions and cook until the onions are soft, during the last minute stir in minced garlic. Mix in the parsley, wine, tomatoes, 1/2 cup of reserved shrimp water, seasonings and remaining olive oil. Simmer over medium low heat, stirring occasionally, for about 30 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened.
Step 3
While the sauce is simmering, and the shrimp are cool enough to handle, peel off the shells and tails.
Step 4
When the sauce is thickened, stir in the shrimp. Bring to a simmer, and cook for about 5 minutes. Add the feta cheese and remove from the heat. Let stand until the cheese starts to melt.
Step 5
Serve warm over your favorite pasta.
