Sweet-n-Spicy Mediterranean Shrimp

In a large saute pan, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add onions and cook for 7 – 8 minutes, or until soft and cooked through. Add the tomatoes, season with salt and pepper, and cook 3 – 4 more minutes. Add in the peppadews, garlic and white wine. Stir well and bring to a bubble. Once the wine is simmering, lower heat to medium low and simmer for two more minutes. Stir in parsley and basil. Taste the sauce, and add salt and pepper if needed.

Add the shrimp to the pan and stir them in. Cook on medium low until shrimp is cooked through (cooking time depends on size of shrimp – medium size shrimp need about 3 – 5 minutes). Do not overcook the shrimp.

When shrimp is cooked through, turn off heat. Stir in feta and allow it to melt from the heat of the pan. Serve over a bed of couscous or rice.

NOTE: Peppadews (aka sweet piquant peppers) are available in most well stocked grocery stores. If your store has an olive bar, they are often located there. If you cannot find peppadews, feel free to substitute pickled cherry peppers or pimentos.
