Pat the shrimp dry with a paper towel and season them evenly with sea salt and black pepper.
In a large skillet over medium-high heat, melt the ghee and add the olive oil.
Add the shrimp to the skillet in a single layer and sear for 2 minutes per side until pink and opaque, then remove shrimp from the pan and set aside.
Lower the heat to medium and add the minced garlic and red pepper flakes, sautéing for 1 minute until fragrant but not browned.
Pour in the chicken bone broth and lemon juice, scraping the bottom of the pan to release any browned bits, and simmer for 2 minutes to reduce slightly.
Add the zucchini noodles to the skillet and toss gently for 1-2 minutes until they are just tender but still have a slight crunch.
Return the shrimp to the pan, add the lemon zest and fresh parsley, and toss everything together to coat in the sauce before serving immediately.
