Start by peeling and devaining your shrimp. Then place the shrimp in a medium bowl and season with juice from half of the lemon, half of the black pepper and garlic, and all of the old bay. Toss together and allow to soak up the flavors while you noodle your zucchini.
Using a spiral slicer, slice your zucchini into thin noodles. Then season the noodles with salt and the remaining half of lemon.
Heat a large saute pan to medium low heat. Add the shrimp and juice to the pan. Spread the shrimp out into an even layer. Allow to cook for 3 minutes, then flip and cook for another 2 minutes on the other side.
Now add the zucchini noodles and the butter to the pan with the shrimp. Toss everything together and season with the other half of the pepper and garlic powder. Then cover with a lid and cook for 5 minutes, removing the lid halfway thru and tossing.
Serve with a sprinkle of fresh parsley and a lemon wedge. Or, portion out into meal prep containers.
