Ingredients
- 1 lb. raw shrimp (21–25 count), tail-off, peeled and deveined
- 1/2 lemon, zested and juiced (about 1 1/2 tbsp. juice)
- 3 tbsp. jarred minced garlic

- 1 tsp. crushed red pepper, plus more for garnish
- 1/4 cup unsalted chicken stock
- 4 medium zucchini, trimmed and spiral-sliced

Instructions
- In a medium bowl, stir together shrimp, lemon zest and juice, garlic, 1 tablespoon oil and crushed red pepper. Refrigerate, covered, 20 minutes.
