Ingredients

  • 1 pound linguini
  • Salt
  • 1 pound medium to large shrimp deveined and peeled, tails removed
  • Pepper
  • 1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil
  • 4 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
  • Couple pinches red pepper flakes
  • 1/2 lemon, zested and juiced
  • 2 sprigs oregano, finely chopped
  • Handful pitted kalamata olives, chopped
  • 1/2 cup white wine, eyeball it
  • 1/2 cup chopped flat-leaf parsley
  • 1 cup feta cheese crumbles

Directions

Place a large pot of water on the stove to boil. Salt water and cook pasta to al dente.

Season the shrimp with salt and pepper.

While the pasta water comes to a boil, heat extra-virgin olive oil in a deep skillet with garlic. When garlic is brown, remove and reserve. Add shrimp and cook 3 to 4 minutes. Add red pepper flakes, lemon zest, oregano, olives, and wine and cook together a couple of minutes more. Remove from heat. Add a ladle of starchy pasta cooking water to sauce and some lemon juice. Remove the sauce from the heat. Drain pasta and add to the skillet. Let pasta soak in juices for a minute then toss with parsley and feta. Use tongs to pull pasta from skillet, giving it a turn to twist in as many ingredients as possible. Then, use the tongs to remove and arrange the shrimp and ingredients that may remain in the pan, distributing them evenly among the portions.

    One added note to my previous review...Greek olives are fairly expensive but Costco sells a giant jar of PITTED Parthenon Kalamata olives for around 6 dollars--the weight is roughly 56 ounces which is just under 5 pounds compared to a standard 16 ounce jar of Mezzetta olives for around five bucks in the super markets. .

    Granted,t''ll take you forever to use up these olives but for the most part, Costco's jar of olives is a steal. Just passing on a tip to my fellow cooks!

    Pretty bland tasting, Had to spice it up to add flavor. This is after using all the ingredients. Sorry, didn't keep track of additional ingredients. Love to cook by taste. We love greek dishes so thought this would really be wonderful. Used only fresh herbs from our garden as well.
