Shrimp & Veggies

  2. In skillet, heat remaining oil over high heat; cook shrimp and garlic, stirring, for 3 minutes or until shrimp is opaque.
  3. Add zucchini mixture into skillet. Add a little Goldenberry sauce; stir to mix. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

To Assemble:

  1. Spread the remainder of the Goldenberry sauce on two serving plates. Top with shrimp and veggie mixture. Sprinkle with fresh herbs and decorate the side with plantain chips.
