👨‍🍳 Instructions

Blend basil, 1/2 cup olive oil, 1/4 cup almonds, vinegar, shallot, garlic, lemon zest, and red pepper flakes in a blender until lemon basil dressing is smooth.

Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat; saute shrimp until cooked through and pink, 2 to 4 minutes.

Remove skillet from heat and mix shrimp with 2 tablespoons dressing in a bowl.

Run zucchini through a spiralizer to create spaghetti-size noodle shapes.

Add to skillet; cook and stir over medium heat until zucchini noodles are tender, 1 to 2 minutes.

Remove skillet from heat.

Arrange shrimp on top of zucchini noodles; season with salt and black pepper.
