- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese (grated)
- Optional: 8-10 shrimp or chicken breast (for added protein)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Instructions:
- In a large skillet, heat butter over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
- Pour in the heavy cream, stirring constantly. Bring to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low.
- Add the Parmesan cheese gradually, stirring until it melts into a creamy sauce. Season with salt and pepper.
- In another pan, sauté the spiralized zucchini noodles in a bit of butter for 2-3 minutes until they are tender but still firm (“al dente”).
