What's for Dinner Wednesday~Zucchini Shrimp Scampi

Our youngest stumbled upon this recipe on Pinterest, and after making it for herself just had to share!  It is delicious, and super simple to prepare.  A win win in my book for an easy weeknight meal.

Original recipe can be found here.

Ingredients:

2 TBS unsalted butter

1 LB medium shrimp, peeled and deveined

3 cloves garlic, minced

1/2 tsp red pepper flakes, or more, to taste (for those of you who like less spicy you know who you are you may want to use a little less)

1/4 C chicken stock

Juice of 1 lemon

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

1 1/2 LBS (4 medium sized zucchini, spiralized

2 TBS freshly grated Parmesan

2 TBS chopped parsley leaves

Instructions:

Melt butter in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add shrimp, garlic and red pepper flakes.

Cook, stirring occasionally, until pink, about 2-3 minutes.

Stir in chicken stock and lemon juice; season with salt and pepper, to taste. Bring to a simmer; stir in zucchini noodles until well combined, about 1-2 minutes.

Serve immediately, garnished with Parmesan and parsley, if desired.

We used this spiralizer from Williams-Sonoma.

I recently purchased this spiralizer from Bed Bath and Beyond for our daughter.

She said it worked GREAT!

Also, I noticed our local Whole Foods is now carrying zucchini already spiralized!  So easy!!
