Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Wash and spiralize or julienne the zucchini into thin strands. Finely chop the shallots and parsley. Zest the lemon and then juice it.

  2. 2

    Sauté the Shallots

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped shallots and sauté for about 2-3 minutes until they are soft and translucent.

  3. 3

    Cook the Zucchini

    Add the zucchini to the skillet and cook for another 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the zucchini is tender but still slightly crisp.

  4. 4

    Add Seasoning

    Stir in the lemon juice, lemon zest, salt, and pepper to taste. Cook for an additional minute to combine the flavors.

  5. 5

    Serve with Ricotta

    Remove the skillet from heat and stir in the fresh parsley. Serve the zucchini mixture warm, topped with dollops of ricotta cheese.
