Pat the shrimp dry and put them in a bowl with the soy sauce and garlic, toss until evenly combined and marinate for 5 to 10 minutes.

As the shrimp marinate, use a veggie spiralizer to make the zucchini noodles.

Set a skillet over medium high heat and add the sesame or vegetable oil. Once the oil is hot add the shrimp and cook 3 to 4 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove the shrimp and set aside.
