Melt 2 tablespoons ghee (or butter) in large skillet over low heat. Add in your turkey meatballs and cook for 6-10 minutes (or until cooked through). Make sure you cover them in the butter, then remove and add to a plate.

In same skillet, add remaining butter, lemon juice, hot sauce, minced garlic, and zucchini noodles. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes, stirring regularly. The zucchini noodles are done when they are nice and crisp!
