Preparation steps

1.

Peel garlic and chop finely. Rinse shrimp and pat dry. In a bowl, mix together the garlic, ginger, shrimp, 4 tablespoons of olive oil, salt, pink pepper, turmeric and soy sauce until well combined. Cover and refrigerate 1 hour. Rinse the zucchini, and cut into very thin sticks. Place the shrimp along with the marinade in a skillet and simmer over medium heat until the shrimp are just cooked through, about 6 minutes.

2.

Cook the pasta in a pot of boiling salted water until al dente, drain. Return to the pan and mix with the remaining olive oil and zucchini and let stand until the zucchini has wilted. Divide among heated bowls, spoon the shrimp over and serve sprinkled with cilantro.
