Whole30 Shrimp & Scallop Scampi

Shrimp & Scallop Scampi
salt & pepper
12 jumbo shrimp, peeled and deveined
12 large sea scallops, tough foot muscles removed
3 1/2 tablespoons Ghee
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice, plus lemon wedges for garnish 1/2 cup water
1/4 cup torn fresh basil

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Pat the shrimp and scallops dry, then season with salt and pepper. Add 1 1/2 tablespoons butter to the pan and cook the shrimp until golden on one side, about 3 minutes. Turn the shrimp and add half of the garlic; cook until the garlic is fragrant but the shrimp are still translucent, 1 to 2 more minutes. Transfer the shrimp to a plate.

Add the scallops to the skillet and cook until golden on one side, about 3 minutes. Turn the scallops, add the remaining garlic and cook 1 to 2 more minutes. Add the lemon juice and water and bring to a boil, scraping up any browned bits with a wooden spoon. Cook until the sauce is reduced by half, about 3 minutes. Return the shrimp to the pan, then add the basil and the remaining 2 tablespoons butter; season with salt and pepper.

Spiral some zucchini noodles, toss with the shrimp, scallops and sauce. Serve immediately and enjoy!
