Shrimp Scampi with Zucchini Noodles

No pasta, no problem. Let's make Shrimp Scampi with Zucchini Noodles!

I put this dish together, no hard and fast recipe. Just take your favorite Shrimp Scampi recipe and add the zucchini noodles to the pan for the last minute of cooking.

Ingredients are:
Olive oil - enough to cover the bottom of a large pan, maybe 2T
Butter - 1 pat
Garlic - a few cloves, I used 6 or 7, chopped and/or garlic paste
Red pepper flakes - 1t as you prefer
Saute garlic for 5 mins. on med-low heat

Shrimp - I used 4 or 5, about 4 oz. / 125g. For some added zip, add some Cajun seasoning
Turn heat to medium, add shrimp and cook 1-2 minutes per side

Zucchini - 1 medium, spiral cut into "zoodles"
Parsley - Italian or curly, handful chopped and added to zucchini
Turn heat to med-hi, add vegetables, toss to coat and cook for no more than 60 seconds.
If you see any signs of moisture on the bottom of the pan, get it out of the pan and onto a plate right now.

Optional - dry grated cheese or better yet, Johnny's Parmesan Garlic seasoning:
