Grilled Prawns with Zucchini Noodles (Low Carb/Paleo)



You will need...
12 green banana prawns, peeled
10 cherry tomatoes, halved
3 medium zucchinis
3 cloves garlic
1 lemon, zest and juice
1 shallot, washed
2 sprigs basil
salt
pepper
olive oil

Method

  1. Prepare your zucchinis, wash and trim the ends then spiralize them to your desired thickness (I prefer to keep them thicker as they stay crisp and don't go soggy so quickly
  2. Zest and juice your lemon, removing any pits
  3. Crush the garlic, slice the shallot
  4. Wash, pick and chop the basil
  5. Mix the garlic, a Tbsp olive oil and half the lemon zest with the prawns, add a pinch of salt and pepper (you can do this in advance if you would like to marinate them!)
  6. Heat a pan on high. Add the prawns and let brown before turning.
  7. While pan is still on high, add the shallots and tomato and toss to coat. 
  8. Quickly add the zoodles and then the lemon juice, salt, pepper and another dash of olive oil.
  9. Toss and allow to cook briefly for 3-5 minutes until zucchini is just warmed.
  10. Sprinkle with chopped basil and serve immediately.
NB. Add some fresh chilli if you like!
