Ingredients
- 4 zucchini medium, spirialized or use a vegetable peeler to peel long ribbons of zucchini
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- 1 clove garlic minced
- ¼ teaspoon red chili flakes
- 4 ounces plain goat cheese
Instructions
- Heat butter and olive oil in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add chili flakes and garlic. Saute until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
- Add the zucchini to the pan and toss with tongs for 1 to 2 minutes. Sprinkle in salt and pepper.
- Just as the zucchini noodles begin to soften, but before they start shedding water, add the goat cheese.
- Cook just until the sauce is heated.
This is a quick process. Remember the more you cook the noodles the more water is extracted, making the sauce runny. - Serve immediately.
