This recipe is originally for 2 servings. How many are you cooking for today?
- 2 mediums zucchini (spiralized)
- 10 ozs wild shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 10 pieces cherry tomatoes, halved
- 2 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
- 1/4 cup fresh basil leaves, torn
- 1 whole lemon (zested and a squeeze of juice)
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Pat shrimp dry. In a hot skillet, add shrimp and cook 1–2 minutes per side until opaque. Remove and set aside. (Shrimp cook quickly and release moisture to cook without added oils.)
In the same skillet add garlic and briefly warm until fragrant (watch closely to avoid burning). Add cherry tomatoes and zucchini noodles and toss until zucchini is just tender, 2–3 minutes.
Return shrimp to the skillet, add lemon zest and juice, basil, salt, and pepper. Toss and serve immediately.
