Instructions

  1. 1

    Using a coarse cheese grater, slide the zucchini down the grater, shaving of long strips. Rotate the zucchini constantly, grating all sides, until you reach the seeds in the center.

  4. 4

    Pour in the chicken broth and lemon juice, and let the liquid come to a simmer.

  5. 5

    Add the zucchini noodles and stir until everything is combined and the shrimp are fully cooked.
