Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat your oven to 375°F. In a skillet over medium heat, warm 3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil. Add 4 minced garlic cloves and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.
  2. Step 2: Add 1 cup halved cherry tomatoes and 14 oz diced canned tomatoes to the skillet, along with 1 tsp dried oregano, 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes, 1 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp black pepper. Simmer for 5 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.
  3. Step 3: Stir in 1 lb large peeled and deveined prawns, cooking gently for 2 minutes to combine flavors. Transfer the mixture to an oven-safe baking dish.
  4. Step 4: Sprinkle 4 oz crumbled feta cheese evenly over the prawns and tomato sauce.
  5. Step 5: Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes until the prawns turn pink and the feta is slightly golden. Garnish with 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley before serving.
