Cooking the Sauce

Heat the olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until it becomes translucent and soft, which usually takes about 5 minutes.
5 min - 3
Add the minced garlic, salt, and chili flakes to the pan. Cook for about 30 seconds, stirring constantly, just until the garlic becomes fragrant. Be careful not to let it brown or burn.

Now, add the shrimps and butter to the pan. Cook the shrimps for 1-2 minutes per side until they turn pink and opaque.
2 min - 5
Pour in the canned tomatoes. If they are whole, use a spoon to break them up into smaller pieces. Season with black pepper. Bring the sauce to a gentle simmer and let it cook for about 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.

Crumble about 100g of the feta directly into the simmering sauce.

Combining and Serving
