Heat a heavy-bottomed skillet over medium-high heat.
While the pan is heating, quarter the meatballs and reserve.
Add extra virgin olive oil to the pan, then the garlic and shrimp, and sauté until the garlic just begins to brown.
Add the quartered meatballs and deglaze with the wine.
Add the clam juice and oregano and bring to a boil.
When the shrimp are pink and just barely cooked through, remove them from the pan and reserve, reducing the sauce by half.
Add the butter one tablespoon at a time, stirring constantly, until combined.
Toss pasta with the sauce along with the parsley, parmesan, and crushed red pepper. Add some of the pasta water, if necessary, to adjust the consistency.
Serve immediately.
