Ingredients
- 1 lb Large Shrimp
- 2 Zucchini
- 4 cloves Garlic
- 3 tbsp Butter
- 0.25 cup Dry White Wine
- 1 tbsp Lemon Juice
- 2 tbsp Fresh Parsley
- 0.25 tsp Red Pepper Flakes

Instructions
Pat shrimp dry with paper towels. Season with salt and pepper.
Heat butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and red pepper flakes (if using) and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add shrimp to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, until pink and opaque.
Pour in white wine (or broth) and lemon juice. Bring to a simmer and cook for 1-2 minutes.
Add zucchini noodles to the skillet. Toss gently with the shrimp and sauce for 1-2 minutes, just until warmed through (do not overcook or they'll get watery).
Stir in fresh parsley. Serve immediately.
