Chef's Tips
Don't overcook the zucchini noodles, as they will become mushy.
If the zucchini noodles release too much water, drain the excess liquid before adding the other ingredients.
For a richer flavor, you can add a pinch of red pepper flakes.
You can add grilled chicken or shrimp for extra protein.
