Heat olive oil and butter over medium heat in a heavy frying pan (preferably one that you can use later as a serving dish). Sauté the onions and garlic until soft and translucent but not brown. Add tomatoes, wine, half the parsley, oregano, basil and seasonings. Boil uncovered until sauce thickens.

Reduce heat, add shrimp and cook five or six minutes. Shrimp should turn firm and pink. Add cheese.
Adjust seasonings. Add remaining parsley as a garnish. Pass hot crusty bread. Serve with a crisp green salad.

    I have made it without the wine too - and it is GOOD!! I am glad you enjoyed it. I like adding a couple kalamata olives to the plate for a treat.
