Spiced Shrimp and Zoodles

{Whole30 Approved}

Kid Tested 🙂 My little loves this. It’s good for them too! 

I have been pinning recipes with “Zoodles” {zucchini noodles} for the last couple of days and thought I’d better buy a spiral cutter and try them out! After seeing what all of the fuss is about, I wonder if I’ll ever need real pasta again!!

Spiced seared shrimp, steamed broccoli, and zucchini noodles tossed in olive oil, lemon, and parsley. It’s so good you won’t even know it’s healthy and even the toughest critics {the teenagers} will love it! Mine sure did!

You’ll Need:

• 4 zucchini, spiraled
• 2 heads of broccoli, cleaned and cut into bite size pieces
• 20 shrimp, peeled and deveined
• Olive oil
• 1 lemon
• half a bunch of parsley chopped
• Salt & Pepper
• Red pepper flakes (2 shakes)
• Uncle Timmy’s Spice Rub {or use paprika and a little cayenne}

Method:

Drizzle olive oil over the shrimp and season, flip and season the other side.

Lightly coat a pan with olive oil and add red pepper flakes. Add the broccoli,mix up and cover. Cook on medium heat until dark green and al dente {3/4 of the way cooked}, then set aside.

Heat another pan with olive oil, add the shrimp, cook on one side for a couple of minutes to get some caramelization, then flip and cook for about 30 seconds. Take shrimp out of the pan and set aside. Add a touch more olive oil and throw in the noodles, toss, and season with salt and pepper. Cook until soft, then add in the broccoli, and shrimp, mix up and then squeeze the lemon over and chopped parsley and mix again, then serve.
