Low Carb Summer Garden Zucchini Pasta With Chile Shrimp Recipes

Steps:

• Cut lengthwise slices from zucchini using a vegetable peeler, stopping when the seeds are reached. Turn zucchini over and continue 'peeling' until all the zucchini is in long strips; discard seeds. Slice the zucchini into thinner strips resembling spaghetti.
• Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat; cook and stir zucchini in the hot oil for 1 minute. Add water and cook until zucchini is softened, 5 to 7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• Cut zucchini into noodles using a spiralizer fitted with the large shredding blade.
• Saute cherry tomatoes, snap peas, sweet peppers, and onion in a large saucepan over medium-high heat until tender, about 5 minutes. Add garlic; cook until softened, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat and place vegetable mixture in a bowl.
• Return saucepan to medium-high heat; add shrimp and chile paste. Saute until shrimp begin to turn opaque and is coated in paste, about 2 minutes. Add vinegar; cook until reduced, about 1 minute. Add vegetable stock, fish sauce, and sesame oil. Add the vegetable mixture and zucchini noodles. Cover and allow zucchini to steam, 2 to 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
• Split the zucchini between 4 plates. Top with the shrimp, vegetables, and broth. Finish with green onions, cilantro, and lemon zest.
