Zucchini Shrimp Scampi

By Tasty25 min🍽 6 servings

This light and refreshing dish features tender shrimp and zucchini noodles in place of traditional wheat noodles, all tossed in a zesty garlic and lemon sauce.

Instructions

  1. 1

    Using a coarse cheese grater, slide the zucchini down the grater, shaving of long strips. Rotate the zucchini constantly, grating all sides, until you reach the seeds in the center.

  2. 2

    Heat the oil over medium-high heat in a large, nonstick skillet.

  3. 3

    Add the shrimp in and season with the salt, black pepper, red pepper, and garlic. Sauté the shrimp, until they evenly begin to show a pink color, about 3 minutes.

  4. 4

    Pour in the chicken broth and lemon juice, and let the liquid come to a simmer.

  5. 5

    Add the zucchini noodles and stir until everything is combined and the shrimp are fully cooked.

  6. 6

    Sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley leaves and serve.

  7. 7

    Enjoy!
