Today, I am collaborating with Cavit to celebrate the upcoming first National Pinot Grigio Day on 26th of May. Did you know Cavit first introduced Pinot Grigio into the United States back in 1977? 4 decades! Now, to further increase the awareness of the variety, Cavit is introducing National Pinot Grigio Day. It will be held every year on the Friday before the Memorial Day. I love wine more than any other kind of alcoholic drinks. So, this is super exciting! Pinot Grigio is light and fruity flavored wine. It’s brightly acidic and refreshing in taste, making it perfect for this warm weather. To pair with this drink, I wanted an equally light and refreshing meal.
Fresh curry leaves and garlic together makes for a striking flavor. When you marinate shrimp with this combination and then stir-fry, it turns into a great appetizer. Drizzle some lime juice on top and make sure you have some wine to wash it down. However, if you want a full carb free meal, hold onto that shrimp and take out the spiralizer to make some zoodles! Of course, you could just boil some pasta or cook some orzo but zoodles are so refreshing and healthier.
I did cook the zoodles in the tangy lemon sauce for a couple of minutes, but you could always just leave it raw and drizzle the sauce on top. Like a salad. Either way, this meal is so fuss free and tasty, I think you could prepare it even for a big party without much effort. Pour some wine, stretch your legs and enjoy this beautiful sunny weather!
