Do you love shrimp scampi over noodles? Having a spiralizer is essential for this recipe.
I spiralize my zucchini directly into a colander and then, add salt to get most of the water out. Even though some of the water will drain, I still blot with a paper towel. You don’t need to worry about the salt as it will drain off with the water and what’s left will season the zoodles.
Spiralizing the zucchini takes the longest time. When cooking the shrimp and the zoodles, be sure that you don’t overcook either or you will end up with rubbery shrimp and mushy noodles.
