Light Garlic Butter Shrimp Scampi with Zucchini Noodles
Enjoy a bright and flavorful shrimp scampi featuring succulent garlic butter shrimp tossed with fresh zucchini noodles. This dish is perfectly balanced with a light lemon finish and aromatic herbs, making it a delightful, yet health-conscious meal ideal for dinner.
INGREDIENTS
8 ounces Shrimp (raw)
1 medium Zucchini (spiralized)
3 cloves Garlic (minced)
1/2 tablespoon Light Butter
1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
1 tablespoon Fresh Parsley (optional)
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Rinse and pat dry the shrimp. Peel and devein if needed.
Spiralize the zucchini to create noodle-like strands and set aside.
Mince the garlic finely.
In a large skillet over medium heat, melt 1/2 tablespoon of light butter.
Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Increase the heat to medium-high and add the shrimp. Season with salt and pepper, cooking until they turn pink and opaque, about 2-3 minutes per side.
Once the shrimp are nearly done, add the lemon juice and lightly toss to combine.
Remove the shrimp from the skillet and set aside momentarily. In the same skillet, add the zucchini noodles and toss gently for 1-2 minutes just to warm them without overcooking.
Return the shrimp to the skillet, mixing them with the zucchini noodles. Adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
