Lemon Shrimp and Feta Zoodles

Lemon Shrimp and Feta Zoodles

The Veggetti was a huge hit as far as Christmas gifts go for me.  I have been eying one for months, and Matt is always looking for gifts he KNOWS I’ll love.  So I let him gift it to me. 😉

And the first dish I made was this!  It was DIVINE!!!
Ingredients
2 tsp olive oil
1 lb jumbo shrimp, peeled and deveined
1/4 tsp kosher salt
Fresh ground black pepper
2 garlic cloves, minced
4 medium zucchini, serialized using the thick setting 
1/2 pint fresh cherry tomatoes, halved
1 1/2 Tablespoons of fresh lemon juice
1 1/2 ounces crumbled feta cheese
1/2 tsp grated lemon zest
In a large nonstick skillet, heat 1 tsp of the oil over medium-high heat. Season the shrimp with 1/2 tsp salt and pepper.  Add the shrimp to the skillet and cook until they are just opaque, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate.
Heat the remaining 1 tsp of oil in the same skillet and add the garlic. Cook, stirring, until golden, 30-6- seconds (be careful not to burn it).  Add the zucchini noodles, the remaining salt and pepper as well as the tomatoes.  Cook, stirring, until the zucchini is crisp-tender, 3-4 minutes. Add the lemon juice, stir, and remove the pan from heat. 
Divide the zoodles and tomatoes between plates (makes 4 servings). Top with shrimp, feta, and lemon zest. Serve hot.
