Ingredients

- 3 Tablespoons olive oil
- Juice of 1 lemon
- 1 garlic clove finely minced, then smashed into a paste with the flat side of your knife
- 2 Tablespoons chopped fresh parsley or other fresh herbs such as dill basil, mint, chives, or a combination of the above
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1/4 cup pine nuts toasted
- 1/3 cup shaved Parmesan cheese
Instructions
- Slice zucchini using a vegetable peeler or Y-peeler, spiralizer, or just into thin matchsticks using a sharp knife.
- Finely mince the garlic using a large, sharp knife. Then use the backside of the knife to press or mash the minced garlic into a paste.
- Transfer the zucchini ribbons to a large serving dish, then drizzle with the olive oil and lemon juice. Add the mashed garlic and sprinkle with the fresh herbs, salt, and pepper. Toss well to coat and let marinate for 10-15 minutes.

Notes
- Crumbled feta or goat cheese are nice substitutes for the parmesan cheese.
- Pistachios are a good substitute for pine nuts.
