Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 2 cloves garlic minced

  • 1/3 cup parmesan grated

  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper

To Serve:

US Customary - Metric

Instructions

  • Remove the zucchini (2 medium) ends and spiralize. Your noodles will be really long, I like to chop them a little so I don't get super long pieces. Discard the interior and end pieces.

  • In a large pan, melt the butter (2 tablespoons) over medium heat. Add the garlic (2 cloves) and saute until it's fragrant, about 1 minute.

  • Add the zucchini noodles, salt (1/2 teaspoon), and pepper (1/4 teaspoon), and toss to coat. Cook for about 1 minute, only to warm through the noodles, cooking them longer will make them soggy. Turn off the heat and sprinkle the parmesan (1/3 cup) on top, then toss to combine.
