Begin by washing the zucchinis thoroughly under running water. Trim off the ends.
Using a spiralizer or a vegetable peeler, create zucchini noodles (zoodles) from the zucchinis. If using a peeler, make thin strips to resemble noodles.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil. Once the oil is hot, add the shrimp to the skillet.
Cook the shrimp for about 2-3 minutes on one side until they turn pink, then flip them and cook for another 2-3 minutes until fully cooked. Remove the shrimp from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the zucchini noodles and sauté for 2-3 minutes until they are slightly tender but still have a bit of crunch. You can season with a pinch of salt and pepper to taste during this time.
Return the cooked shrimp to the skillet with the zucchini noodles. Add the pesto and toss everything together until well combined and heated through, about 1-2 minutes.
Remove from heat and sprinkle the grated parmesan cheese over the top. Toss gently to mix and serve immediately, enjoy!
