- Chop the shrimp into small pieces and place in a medium bowl.
- Add the egg, garlic, cilantro, chives, and almond flour. Stir until shrimp are coated.
- If runny, add a little more almond flour just until the mixture sticks together.
- Heat a cast-iron pan on the stovetop until hot. Add coconut oil and let it warm.
- Scoop the shrimp mixture into the pan in approximately half cup patties. Let cook and flip when one side is browned. When cooked, remove from pan and place on a paper towel.
- Zucchini Pasta
- Cut the ends off both zucchinis. Using a julienne peeler (my preference) or a vegetable peeler, peel the zucchinis until you reach the soft center.
- Place zucchini strips in a medium bowl. Toss with a bit of salt and let sit for 15 minutes. Squeeze water out of the zucchini using a kitchen towel.
- Heat a medium pan on the stovetop and cook zucchini with thyme, salt, and pepper, just until soft.
- Toss with butter and parmesan. Serve with shrimp cakes.
