Add wine to the pan, scraping up any bits. Add the garlic and cook for a minute or two.
Stir in tomatoes and cook two to three minutes so they release their juices and start to make a sauce.

Juice the lemon right into the pan watching not to let any seeds fall in. Mix well and season with salt and pepper.
Divide equally between plates or bowls. Place shrimp on top and sprinkle with the feta cheese.
