INGREDIENTS
6 ounces Shrimp
1 medium Zucchini
1 tablespoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
2 cloves Garlic
1 Lemon
2 tablespoons Fresh Parsley
2 tablespoons Fresh Basil
PREPARATION
Rinse and pat dry the shrimp. Peel and devein if necessary.
Slice the zucchini into thin rounds or half-moons, then set aside.
Mince the garlic finely and zest the lemon, then cut the lemon in half to squeeze out its juice.
In a bowl, toss the zucchini lightly with 1/2 tablespoon olive oil, a pinch of salt, and some of the fresh basil and parsley.
Heat the remaining olive oil in a pan over medium-high heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the shrimp to the pan and sear for about 2 minutes on each side until they turn opaque and lightly golden.
Squeeze lemon juice over the shrimp during the last minute of cooking to infuse the citrus flavor.
Remove the shrimp from the pan and set aside. In the same pan, quickly toss the zucchini slices to warm them and pick up any remaining flavors.
Plate the zucchini as a base, then arrange the shrimp on top. Garnish with the fresh parsley, basil, and lemon zest.
Serve immediately and enjoy the bright, garlicky, and herbaceous flavors.
