Garlic Butter Pan-Seared Shrimp with Zucchini Noodles
Savor the succulent pan-seared shrimp bathed in a rich garlic butter sauce, served over fresh, spiralized zucchini noodles. This dish offers a delightful contrast of textures with tender seafood and crisp zucchini, accented by a hint of lemon and red pepper for a vibrant finish.
INGREDIENTS
7 ounces raw shrimp (peeled and deveined)
1 medium zucchini (spiralized into noodles)
1 teaspoon butter
1 teaspoon olive oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
Salt and black pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Pat the shrimp dry with a paper towel and season lightly with salt and black pepper.
Using a spiralizer or a julienne peeler, create zucchini noodles from the medium zucchini and set aside.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
Add the shrimp to the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until the shrimp turn pink and are just cooked through.
Push the shrimp to one side of the skillet and add the teaspoon of butter. Allow it to melt and mix with the garlic oil, then drizzle lemon juice and sprinkle red pepper flakes over the shrimp.
Add the zucchini noodles to the skillet and gently toss with the shrimp and butter garlic sauce. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until the noodles are slightly tender but still retain their crunch.
Remove from heat. Garnish with fresh chopped parsley and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if needed.
Serve immediately and enjoy a light, protein-rich meal.
