Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 1 onion diced fine
  • ¼ cup garlic diced
  • 1 cup chicken stock
  • 8 oz neufchatel cheese
  • ½ cup heavy cream or half and half
  • 1 cup Parmesan Cheese grated
  • 1 lb Shrimp
  • 4 zucchini spiralized

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Heat butter in large, heavy pot on high heat until melted and foamy. 
  2. Reduce heat to medium and add onion and garlic to pan, and cook until soft and browned, about 3 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent burning- watch to be sure garlic does not overheat and smell bitter. 
  3. Add zucchini and stock to pan and toss evenly, bringing to a rapid boil. 
  4. Add in cream cheese and melt, stirring often to break it up around the pan. 
  5. Turn heat off, and add in cream and parmesan cheese, whisking as you pour it in. 
  6. Turn heat back on to medium high once cream is incorporated, adding shrimp and grated parmesan with it. 
  7. Cook down until sauce is reduced and shrimp is pink and opaque, about 5 minutes. Do not over cook shrimp. 
  8. Serve immediately.
