INGREDIENTS
6 oz Shrimp, peeled and deveined
1 medium Zucchini (spiralized)
1 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
2 cloves Garlic, minced
Juice of 1 Lemon
1/4 tsp Red Pepper Flakes
2 tbsp Fresh Parsley, chopped
PREPARATION
If not pre-spiralized, use a spiralizer to create zucchini noodles from the medium zucchini and set aside.
Pat the shrimp dry with paper towels. Season lightly with salt and pepper if desired.
In a large skillet, heat the extra virgin olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and red pepper flakes, and sauté for about 30 seconds until the garlic becomes fragrant.
Add the shrimp to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side or until they turn pink and opaque.
Squeeze the juice of one lemon over the shrimp while cooking, stirring to combine the flavors.
Toss the zucchini noodles into the skillet with the shrimp for the last minute of cooking to lightly warm them without overcooking.
Remove from heat and garnish with freshly chopped parsley. Serve immediately.
