Make
- Heat oven to 425 F / 218 C degrees.
- Bring a sauce pan of water to boil. Salt generously and add broccoli. Cook until broccoli is tender and bright green, ~3 minutes. Drain and return to the pan. Add beans and toss with olive oil, lemon juice and zest. Season with some salt and pepper and more lemon juice, to taste.
- Meanwhile, heat a skillet or frying pan over medium-high heat. Add cooking oil. When oil begins to shimmer, add onions and bell peppers and saute until softened, 2 to 3 minutes. Add garlic, oregano and red pepper flakes and saute until fragrant, about 1 minute more. Add tomatoes (including juice) and stir to combine. Simmer until sauce thickens, 4 to 5 minutes. Season with some salt and pepper. Remove from heat and stir in shrimp. Crumble feta over the top.
- Transfer to oven and bake until shrimp are cooked through and cheese is golden brown, 10 to 12 minutes.
- Serve shrimp with white beans and broccoli on the side. Enjoy!
