Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 pounds jumbo shrimp, peeled and deveined, tails on
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 large zucchini, diced
- 2 large ears of corn, kernels removed
- 3/4 cup red grape tomatoes, sliced in half lengthwise
- 3/4 cup yellow grape tomatoes, sliced in half lengthwise
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 12 to 18 fresh basil leaves, cut in chiffonade
- Parmesan shavings
- Juice of 1 lemon
- Rice or pasta, for serving, optional
Instructions
- Melt the butter with the olive oil in a large skillet over a medium-high heat. Add the shrimp and garlic, then saute until the shrimp are opaque, about 3 minutes. Remove the shrimp to a plate.
- Increase the heat to high, then throw in the zucchini. Stir it around for about 45 seconds, then scoot the zucchini to the edges of the pan. Throw in the corn and cook it for a minute, then push it to the edges of the pan. Throw in the grape tomatoes, stir them around for a minute, then sprinkle on some salt and pepper to taste.
- Then throw the shrimp back in. Stir everything around for about 45 seconds, or until it’s all combined and hot. Then pour it onto a big platter.
- Sprinkle on the fresh basil and some Parmesan shavings then … this is the best part … squeeze the lemon all over the top. This adds a wonderful, indescribable freshness.
- You can serve this with rice, with pasta or it’s just perfect on its own.

New tradition, my husband picks a recipe from my saves and I make it. I must have saved this while watching a Pioneer Woman episode but never made it…until tonight. Was fabulous!
Absolutely the best and very healthy. The only thing I did was add red pepper. Colorful and delicious. I diced and shelled and chopped all before dinner so when the time came I just needed to add everything. This will become a regular meal.
This was perfectly delicious! The only thing I added were mushrooms (had some left from another recipe) and a little Paul Prudhomme’s Seafood Magic for additional seasoning. Yum!
Delicious and yes easy and quick to make!
This was easy and so delicious. Colorful on the plate!
Added mushrooms, delicious!
Love this recipe! As others have said, it’s versatile – with or without the shrimp as a main or side. Either way, it’s fresh and SO GOOD.
This was so good!
Didn’t have zucchini, and added bell pepper and onion. Served over rice. Turned out delicious.
This was amazing! All flavors worked well together. I ended up adding some extra red pepper flakes but that was it- I didn’t serve it with rice or anything; it was perfect on its own!
I added mushrooms, onions and served over rice. Absolutely delicious!!
