Wash and dry all produce. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Halve, peel, and very thinly slice @yellow onion{1%unit}. Pick leaves from @oregano{1%sprig}, discard stems, and finely chop leaves. Mince @garlic{2%cloves}.

Heat a drizzle of @olive oil{1%tbsp} in a #large pan{} over medium-high heat. Add garlic, onion, half the oregano, and a pinch of @chili flakes{1%tsp}. Cook until softened, ~{5%minutes}, tossing occasionally. Season with @salt{} and @pepper{}.

Add @diced tomatoes{14%oz} and @sugar{½%tsp} to pan. Reduce heat to medium-low and let simmer until thickened, ~{10%minutes}. Season with salt and pepper.

Once water is boiling, add @linguine{4%oz} to #large pot{}. Cook until al dente, ~{10%minutes}. Drain, reserving ¼ cup cooking water.

Season @shrimp{8%oz} with salt and pepper. Add to pan and stir into tomato sauce. Let shrimp cook until pink and completely opaque, ~{4%minutes}.

Toss linguine into pan, coating with sauce. Add a splash of cooking water if necessary to give tomatoes a saucy consistency. Season with salt and pepper. Divide linguine and shrimp between plates. Sprinkle with remaining oregano and any additional chili flakes, if desired.
