Adjust the heat/spice level to your liking. Just taste it before adding it and then determine how spicy you want it to be.
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
3 garlic cloves, crushed
2 medium to large zucchini, halved then sliced into half-inch chunks
1 tablespoon, dark soy sauce, or to taste
1 pound raw jumbo shrimps, peeled and deveined
3 to 5 tablespoons sweet chili sauce, diluted with about 3-7 tablespoons of water, or to taste*
A few drops of sesame oil.

Steps:

Hint: Start your rice before preparing the shrimp and zucchini. Heat up a wok or a large frying pan to high heat. Swirl in the vegetable oil. Add the garlic and cook very briefly just until aromatic, a few seconds only. Add the zucchini slices and drizzle the soy sauce on top. Stir-fry for a couple of minutes or until tender. Season with a little ground pepper, to taste. Push the zucchini to the side of the wok/frying pan. If the pan/wok is quite dry at this point, add a little more oil. Place the shrimp in one layer. Let it cook for 1 minute without stirring. Season with a little salt (just a pinch). After 1 minute, stir-fry with the zucchini until it has turned fully opaque, about 1 more minute. Quickly, stir in the sweet chili sauce and coat the zucchini and shrimp. Add a few drops of sesame oil to the mix. Serve immediately with some freshly cooked rice.
