Directions:
1. Cut the shrimp crosswise in half. Process the tail pieces into a puree in a food processor and transfer to a bowl.
2. Cut the remaining shrimp into ½ inch pieces and add them to the bowl. Add the chives and mix well. Divide the mixture into 4 equal parts and form each one into a burger about 1 inch thick.
4. Heat the oil in a large skillet. Add the zucchini with 1/4 teaspoon each of the salt and pepper and sauté over high heat for 4 to 5 minutes.
5. Melt the butter in another large skillet with a lid. Sprinkle the remaining salt and pepper on the shrimp patties and place them carefully in the hot butter. Cook for about 1½ minutes over high heat, then gently turn the burgers over. Cover, reduce the heat to medium, and cook for 2 to 2 1/2 minutes, until barely cooked through.
6. Arrange the zucchini on four warm plates. Place the shrimp burgers on top, sprinkle with the chives, and serve.
