Sweet Chili Shrimp Zoodles
These sweet chili shrimp zoodles are a healthy, flavorful, and tasty low-carb meal that's ready in only 15 minutes!
Servings 2
Ingredients
- 1 pound shrimp (I used 31-40 count size) thawed and peeled (tail on is optional)
- 2 medium zucchini spiralized on the medium setting
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 clove garlic minced
- 6 tablespoons Thai sweet chili sauce
- Juice of 1/2 lime
- 1 tablespoon cilantro chopped
- Salt & pepper to taste
- Sesame seeds for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Spiralize your zucchini.
- Add the oil to a skillet on medium-high heat. Add the shrimp to the pan and cook for 2 minutes, stirring often.
- Add the garlic, sweet chili sauce, lime juice, and cilantro. Cook for another 3 minutes or so, or until the shrimp are cooked.
- Add the zucchini noodles and stir/toss (e.g. with tongs) constantly for a minute or two, until they're slightly cooked and warmed up. Season with salt & pepper to taste and garnish with sesame seeds if using. Serve immediately.
Notes
- This dish does have a lot of yummy sauce, especially if you cook the zucchini more than a little bit (the zoodles release a lot of water).
- This is the spiralizer I used to make this recipe.
