INGREDIENTS
7 ounces Shrimp
1 medium Zucchini
1 tablespoon Butter
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 clove Garlic
1 medium Lemon
2 tablespoons Parsley
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Start by peeling and deveining the shrimp if not pre-prepared. Pat them dry with a paper towel.
Using a spiralizer, create zucchini noodles from the medium zucchini. If you don't have a spiralizer, use a vegetable peeler to create long ribbons.
Mince the garlic and roughly chop the parsley. Slice the lemon in half; squeeze the juice from one half and thinly slice the other half for garnish.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the olive oil and butter. Once the butter starts to melt, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the shrimp to the pan. Season with salt and pepper, and cook for about 2-3 minutes per side until the shrimp turn pink and opaque.
Add the zucchini noodles to the skillet. Toss gently to combine with the shrimp and garlic butter sauce, cooking for an additional 1-2 minutes until just tender. Avoid overcooking to maintain a crunchy texture.
Stir in the lemon juice and half of the parsley, and remove the skillet from heat immediately.
Plate the dish, garnish with lemon slices and the remaining parsley. Serve warm and enjoy the vibrant flavors.
