Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon chopped fresh parsley
• 1 pinch salt to taste
• 2 medium zucchini
• 0.25 teaspoon red pepper flakes

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Use a spiralizer to cut zucchini into thick or thin ribbons, your preference.

Step 2

Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add olive oil and garlic, and cook until the garlic is fragrant, about 1 minute. Add zucchini and toss to coat with the butter-garlic sauce. Saute until zucchini noodles are slightly softened or have reached desired tenderness, 3 to 5 minutes.

Step 3

Stir in lemon juice, lemon-pepper, red pepper flakes, and salt, and remove from the heat. Garnish with a sprinkle of parsley and lemon zest, and serve.
