    Stir in the zucchini and sauté for 2 minutes. Add the garlic and red pepper flakes. Sauté for an additional minute.

  4. 4

    Add the shrimp in an even layer in the pan, cook for 1 minute, and add the wine. Stir to coat the shrimp. Increase the heat to medium-high and boil the wine for 3 minutes.

  5. 5

    Gently stir to turn the shrimp over to cook on the other side. Continue to cook for another 2 minutes.

  6. 6

    Remove the pan from the heat. Sprinkle the shrimp with parsley, lemon juice, black pepper, tomato pieces, and toss to combine.

  7. 7

    Place the pan over low heat and cover for 1-2 minutes.

    Remove the pan from the heat and pour the pan ingredients and juices over prepared pasta in a bowl or on plates.
