Pat the shrimp dry. Heat a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat with half the olive oil. Add the shrimp in a single layer and season with half the salt, the black pepper, and red pepper flakes. Cook for 2 minutes, flip, and cook for 1 to 2 minutes more until opaque and curled. Done when opaque and curled, 145°F.
Transfer the shrimp to a plate. In the same skillet, add the remaining oil and the garlic. Sauté for 1 minute until fragrant. Add the zucchini noodles and the remaining salt. Sauté, tossing often, for 2 to 3 minutes until just tender but not mushy.
Return the shrimp and any plate juices to the skillet. Add the lemon juice, lemon zest, parsley, and basil. Toss everything together for 1 minute until heated through. Remove from heat and stir in the Parmesan cheese until just melted.
