For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a clove of minced garlic to the skillet along with the onions. A pinch of red pepper flakes adds a subtle kick of heat. Fresh dill or oregano are wonderful additions to this dish. To elevate the dish, use marinated feta for the recipe. This will add a delicious depth of flavor to the pasta.

01 Step
Recipe View 4 mins Bring a large pot of generously salted water to a rolling boil. Add the angel hair pasta and cook for 4 minutes, or until al dente. Reserve about 1/2 cup of pasta water, then drain the pasta and immediately transfer it to a large, warmed bowl. (5 minutes)
02 Step
Recipe View 2 mins While the pasta is cooking, melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté until softened and translucent, about 3 minutes. (5 minutes)
03 Step
Recipe View 3 mins Add the shrimp to the skillet with the onions. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, until they turn pink and opaque. Be careful not to overcook them. (6 minutes)
04 Step
Recipe View 1 mins Remove the skillet from the heat and gently stir in the crumbled feta cheese. The residual heat will soften the feta, creating a creamy sauce. If the sauce seems too thick, add a splash of the reserved pasta water to reach your desired consistency. (3 minutes)
05 Step
Recipe View Pour the feta-shrimp mixture over the drained pasta in the bowl. Toss gently but thoroughly to coat the pasta evenly with the sauce. Serve immediately, garnished with a sprinkle of fresh parsley or a squeeze of lemon, if desired. (2 minutes)
