Time 15m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

¼ cup fresh lemon juice
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon honey
½ teaspoon dried basil
1 pinch salt and freshly ground black pepper
⅓ cup extra-virgin olive oil
3 medium zucchini, ends trimmed
¼ cup chopped cilantro leaves and stems
¼ cup toasted pine nuts

Steps:

  • Whisk lemon juice, garlic, Dijon mustard, honey, basil, salt, and pepper together in a small bowl. Drizzle in olive oil and whisk until vinaigrette emulsifies; set aside.
  • Spiralize the zucchini into noodles using the thin blade. The strands will be very long, so cut them into manageable lengths with kitchen shears. Place zucchini noodles in a large bowl and add cilantro.
  • Pour the vinaigrette over the noodles right before serving. Toss to gently coat. Taste and adjust the seasoning, if necessary. Sprinkle with pine nuts and serve immediately.
