Pat the shrimp dry with paper towels and season them evenly with the sea salt and black pepper.
In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add the extra virgin olive oil and half of the ghee.
Add the shrimp to the skillet in a single layer and sear for 2 minutes per side until pink and opaque, then remove the shrimp from the pan and set aside.
Lower the heat to medium and add the remaining ghee to the pan along with the minced garlic and red pepper flakes, sautéing for 1 minute until aromatic.
Pour in the chicken bone broth and lemon juice, scraping any browned bits from the bottom of the pan, and simmer for 2 minutes to reduce the liquid slightly.
Add the zucchini noodles to the pan and toss for 1-2 minutes until they are just tender but still have a slight crunch.
Return the shrimp to the pan, add the chopped fresh parsley, and toss everything together to coat in the glossy sauce before serving immediately.
