Weekend Recipe: Chicken and Tomato Stuffed Spaghetti Squash!
INGREDIENTS
1 large spaghetti squash
Salt, to taste
Pepper, to taste
Olive oil
2 boneless skinless chicken breasts, cubed
3 garlic cloves, minced
4 roma tomatoes, diced
8 ounces spinach
1 jar (approx 24 ounces) marinara sauce
½ cup fresh basil
¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper
PREPARATION
3. Scoop out the seeds, brush with oil, salt, and pepper, and place face down on a baking tray.
4. Bake for 35-40 minutes or until a fork can easily pierce the skin.
5. Heat olive oil in a large pan. Add chicken breasts (seasoned with salt and pepper) and garlic, and fully cook.
6. Add tomatoes and spinach. Cook until spinach has wilted.
7. Add marinara sauce, basil, and crushed red pepper, and stir until the ingredients are fully incorporated.
8. Once the squash has finished roasting, remove from the oven and let it sit for a few minutes before turning over and pulling at it with a fork. (Careful, there will be some steam!)
9. Shred the inside of each squash, being careful not to poke through the skin. Pour the sauce over the shredded squash, top with fresh basil, and serve.
10. Enjoy!
