My favorite meals and dishes are usually the once that only include a few key ingredients and are really quick to prepare. Like these zucchini noodles with a spicy lemon sauce and burrata. This dish is one of my favorite go to recipes when I want something that feels fresh yet tasty and flavorful but doesn’t require too much time or effort to make. The zucchini noodles are fried in a spicy lemon sauce that is made with red chili, garlic, olive oil and lemon juice and zest, which makes them both fresh and light but at the same time tasty and flavorful. To add some crunch to the dish and a nice nutty flavor I dry roasted some hazel and walnuts that I topped them with. These spicy lemon juice zucchini noodles are served with a light, fresh and super creamy burrata that pairs so well with the chili and lemon flavors and the crunchy nuts. This dish is perfect to serve as a starter, lunch or main course. It is both vegetarian, gluten, grain free and low carb.
A few tips:
- I prefer to use a smeller zucchini since they feel crunchier with less “soft core” in the middle.
- Use a good quality burrata that is really soft and creamy. Don’t use the cheaper once that are dryer and less creamy. It really makes a huge difference.
- When frying the zucchini don’t fry them for too long. They should just get a little soft and warm, not mushy and over cooked. They should still hold some crunch.
- I love to dry roast my nuts, but you can use any nuts you like.
- You can vary the amount of chili and garlic depending on how spicy you prefer your zucchini noodles. I prefer to use more chili and less garlic.
