Step 8 -Add the marinated shrimp to the saganaki and stir well. Cover the skillet and cook for 5 minutes.
Step 9 -Uncover the skillet and sprinkle the feta over the shrimp mixture.
Step 10 -Return the lid and cook the shrimp mixture until the feta softens and melts and the shrimp reach an internal temperature of 140 degrees F, about 4-5 minutes.
