INGREDIENTS
6 ounces Shrimp
2 medium Zucchini
1 tablespoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
2 cloves Garlic
1/2 Lemon
2 tablespoons Fresh Basil
Salt & Pepper to taste
1/4 teaspoon Red Pepper Flakes
PREPARATION
Pat the shrimp dry and season lightly with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes.
Using a spiralizer or julienne peeler, create zucchini noodles from the two medium zucchinis.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add minced garlic to the skillet and sauté briefly until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
Place the shrimp in the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes per side until they turn pink and are just cooked through.
Squeeze in the juice of half a lemon and add a sprinkle of lemon zest during the last 30 seconds of cooking.
Remove the shrimp from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, quickly toss the zucchini noodles over medium heat for 1-2 minutes until slightly tender but still al dente.
Add chopped fresh basil to the noodles, then plate the zucchini noodles and top with the shrimp.
Finish with a light drizzle of olive oil, additional lemon juice if desired, and adjust salt and pepper to taste.
