Instructions

Step 1

Arrange a rack 4" from heating element; heat oven to broil. Heat oil in a 10" skillet over medium heat. Add garlic and scallions; cook, until soft, 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in tomato paste; cook for 2 minutes. Add wine; cook until reduced by half, 3 to 4 minutes.

Step 2

Stir in mint and shrimp, season with salt and pepper; crumble feta over top. Broil until bubbly, 3 to 5 minutes. Squeeze lemon over top. Garnish with parsley.
