Prep:  

Mise, Mise, Mise, get your mise together! This means me! This happens so fast, that you must get everything prepped and measured before cooking starts.

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Wash and dry produce.

Trim and thinly slice scallions, separating whites from greens.
Zest
and quarter lemon.

Trim ends from zucchini. Using a peeler, shave zucchini lengthwise into ribbons, rotating as you go, until you get to the seedy core, discard core.

Cook shrimp:

Rinse shrimp under cold water, then pat dry with paper towels. Season with salt and pepper.

Heat a drizzle of oil in a large, preferably nonstick, pan over medium-high heat. Add shrimp and cook, stirring occasionally, until opaque and cooked through, 3- to 4-minutes.

Turn off heat, transfer shrimp to a plate and set aside. Wipe out pan.

Start sauce:

Heat 1 TBS butter and a drizzle of olive oil in same pan over low heat.
Add scallion whites and cook, stirring, until softened, 1- to 2-minutes.

Turn off heat, stir in cream cheese and sour cream until smooth.

Cook pasta:

Once water is boiling, add ravioli to pot and reduce heat to low. Cook, stirring occasionally, until ravioli are tender and floating to the top, 3- to 4-minutes.

Reserve 1 cup pasta cooking water, then gently drain or use a slotted spoon to remove ravioli from pot.

Finish sauce & pasta:

Return pan with sauce to low heat. Stir in 1/3 cup reserved pasta cooking water and juice from half the lemon.

Add 2 TBS butter, stir constantly until melted. Repeat with another 2 TBS butter, cook until sauce is creamy, 2- to 3-minutes.

Tip: If sauce seems too thick, stir in more pasta cooking water a splash at a time.

Stir shrimp and zucchini ribbons, into sauce and cook until zucchini is tender, 1- to 2-minutes. Add drained ravioli and gently stir to coat.

Turn off heat. Season with salt and pepper.

Serve:

Divide ravioli mixture between plates.
Sprinkle with Parmesan, scallion greens, and as much lemon zest and chili flakes as you like.

Serve with any remaining lemon wedges on the side.
