SHRIMP AND ZUCCHINI TOSTADAS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 475 degrees. Place tortillas on two large baking sheets. Brush with 1 tablespoon oil and sprinkle with cheese. Bake until cheese is melted and tortillas are crisp, 3 to 5 minutes.
• In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium-high. Add garlic and zucchini; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring frequently, until zucchini is crisp-tender, 2 to 4 minutes. Add shrimp and cook, stirring frequently, until shrimp are opaque throughout, about 3 minutes. Stir in lime juice. Spoon shrimp mixture over tortillas and top with sour cream and scallions.

ZUCCHINI NOODLES WITH SPICY SHRIMP

Steps:

• Bring a medium pot full of water to a boil. Salt generously.
• Using a julienne peeler or mandoline, create ribbons of zucchini noodles. Blanch the zucchini briefly in the boiling water, for about 2 minutes, until just wilted. Drain the zucchini noodles into a separate bowl and set both the vegetables and drained water aside.
• In a saute pan, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the shallots and cook until just translucent.
• Add shrimp, sriracha sauce, fish sauce, sugar, and a little black pepper, to taste.
• Stirring frequently, cook until the shrimp is just cooked through and pink, about 3 minutes.
• At the tail end of the cooking process, stir in the butter and about 1/2 cup of the reserved water to create a sauce.
• Serve the shrimp on a bed of zucchini noodles, and drizzle with the pan sauce. Garnish with cilantro and basil (if desired), and enjoy!

LEMON-GARLIC SHRIMP & VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Heat 2 teaspoons oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add bell peppers, asparagus, lemon zest and 1/4 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until just beginning to soften, about 6 minutes. Transfer the vegetables to a bowl; cover to keep warm.
• Add the remaining 2 teaspoons oil and garlic to the pan and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add shrimp and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Whisk broth and cornstarch in a small bowl until smooth and add to the pan along with the remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt. Cook, stirring, until the sauce has thickened slightly and the shrimp are pink and just cooked through, about 2 minutes more. Remove from the heat. Stir in lemon juice and parsley. Serve the shrimp and sauce over the vegetables.

GREEK SHRIMP SKEWERS WITH CHOPPED-ZUCCHINI SALAD

Steps:

• Heat grill to medium-high. Thread shrimp onto metal skewers, with tails facing same direction. Brush shrimp, zucchini, onion, and halved lemon with 3 tablespoons oil; season with salt and pepper. Grill, flipping once, until vegetables are softened in spots, shrimp are cooked through, and lemon is lightly charred, 6 to 8 minutes for vegetables, about 3 minutes for shrimp and lemon.
• Transfer vegetables to a cutting board, shrimp to a plate. Squeeze a grilled lemon half over shrimp. Roughly chop onion and zucchini; toss with lemon zest, 2 tablespoons oil, and feta. Season with salt and pepper. Toss couscous with remaining 3 tablespoons oil, juice from other grilled lemon half, and herbs; season with salt and pepper. Serve shrimp over couscous with zucchini salad, a drizzle of oil, and lemon wedges.

ZUCCHINI QUESADILLAS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. In a large skillet, heat 3 tablespoons oil over medium heat. Add onion and 1 teaspoon salt; cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is soft, about 5 minutes. Stir in garlic; cook 1 minute more.
• Add zucchini and frozen corn kernels; cook, stirring occasionally, until zucchini is soft and corn is tender, about 6 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in cilantro, if using.
• Brush one side of all tortillas with remaining tablespoon oil; lay 2 tortillas, oiled side down, on a baking sheet. Place half of the filling on each, and sprinkle with half the cheese. Place remaining 2 tortillas on top, oiled side up; press down gently with a spatula to seal.
• Bake until cheese has melted and tortillas are golden brown, turning once, about 10 minutes. Remove from oven; let cool slightly. To serve, slice each quesadilla into wedges.

CONCHIGLIE WITH SHRIMP, ROASTED TOMATOES, AND PIMENTON

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Gently toss tomatoes with thyme and 1 tablespoon oil. Transfer to a rimmed baking sheet. Roast for 15 minutes. Add zucchini and garlic; toss to combine. Roast until tomatoes are just broken down and zucchini is cooked through, 10 to 12 minutes.
• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook conchiglie until al dente. Drain, reserving 1/2 cup cooking liquid.
• Meanwhile, season shrimp with salt. Heat remaining tablespoon oil in a large skillet over high heat until hot but not smoking. Cook shrimp, stirring occasionally, until just opaque, about 3 minutes. Add cream, pimenton, red-pepper flakes, and roasted-tomato mixture. Bring to a simmer. Toss in pasta and reserved cooking liquid.

SHRIMP PICCATA WITH ZUCCHINI NOODLES

Steps:

• Using a spiral vegetable slicer or a vegetable peeler, cut zucchini lengthwise into long, thin strands or strips. Stop when you reach the seeds in the middle (seeds make the noodles fall apart). Place the zucchini "noodles" in a colander and toss with salt. Let drain for 15 to 30 minutes, then gently squeeze to remove any excess water.
• Meanwhile, heat butter and 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add garlic and cook, stirring, for 30 seconds. Add shrimp and cook, stirring, for 1 minute.
• Whisk broth and cornstarch in a small bowl. Add to the shrimp along with wine, lemon juice and capers. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until the shrimp is just cooked through, 4 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat.
• Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the zucchini noodles and gently toss until hot, about 3 minutes. Serve the shrimp and sauce over the zucchini noodles, sprinkled with parsley.
