Greek and linguine? This is like a war between the ancients here. But while the pasta may be all the way Italy, the flavors are not: Oregano, feta cheese, and jammy sun-dried tomatoes make for a puckering amount of deliciousness, a combo that Socrates would have put down the poison for. Add in the succulent shrimp and filling pasta, and you've got a meal fit for a philosopher-king… or a god-like Roman emperor.

1 Cook the Pasta
Once water is boiling, add pasta and cook until al dente, 8-10 minutes. Reserve ¼ cup pasta cooking water. Drain pasta in a colander and set aside. While pasta cooks, prepare ingredients.
-
2 Prepare the Ingredients
Mince garlic. Stem and mince oregano. Finely chop sun-dried tomatoes. Trim zucchini ends and quarter lengthwise. Cut into ¼" pieces. Pat shrimp dry, and season with ¼ tsp. salt and a pinch of pepper.
-
3 Cook the Shrimp
Heat 2 tsp. olive oil in a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat. Add shrimp to hot pan and sear undisturbed until browned on one side, 2-3 minutes. Flip, and cook until shrimp reaches a minimum internal temperature of 145 degrees, 1-2 minutes. Remove shrimp to a plate. Reserve pan; no need to wipe clean.
-
4 Make the Sauce
Return pan used to cook shrimp to medium-high heat and add 2 tsp. olive oil. Add garlic, sun-dried tomatoes, zucchini, and oregano (reserve a pinch for garnish). Stir often until garlic is aromatic, 1-2 minutes. Add white wine and cook until mostly evaporated, 1-2 minutes. Stir in cream, pasta cooking water, and feta cheese (reserve a pinch for garnish). Bring to a boil and cook until thickened, 3-4 minutes. Stir in pasta, shrimp, ¼ tsp. salt, and a pinch of pepper. Remove from burner.
