Serves: 2

Prep/Cook Time: 15 minutes

What You Will Need:

1 package fresh frozen angel hair pasta

1 pound shrimp

2 TBL chopped garlic, or 4 fresh chopped cloves

2 TBL lemon juice, or fresh juice from 1/2 lemon

2 tsp dried oregano, or 2 sprigs fresh & finely chopped

7 oz kalamata olives, chopped

1/2 cup white wine

1/2 c fresh flat leaf parsley

1 cup feta cheese crumbles

1 can chopped artichokes

(Capers can also be used in this dish, about 1 TBL, if available)

Olive oil

Place a large pot of water on the stove to boil. Salt water and cook pasta to al dente. Meanwhile, season the shrimp with salt and pepper. In a deep skillet, heat olive oil over medium high heat. Toss in the garlic. When garlic is brown, remove and reserve. Add the shrimp and cook 3-4 minutes. Add 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 plates. Enjoy!
