How to cook deliciously - Spaghetti Squash with Chicken

1. Stage

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Pierce squash all over with a sharp knife for ventilation and place on a rimmed baking sheet.

2. Stage

Bake in the preheated oven until tender when pierced with a knife, about 45 minutes.

3. Stage

While the squash is baking, combine parsley, basil, and oregano in a small bowl. Put cherry tomatoes, bell peppers, and onion in a separate bowl. Set both aside.

4. Stage

When the squash has about 10 minutes remaining, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir chicken in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain and set aside.

5. Stage

Remove squash from the oven and let cool slightly. Slice in half and remove seeds.

6. Stage

Add olive oil and garlic to the skillet used to cook the chicken; cook over medium heat until you can smell the garlic, about 1 minute. Add fresh herb mixture and saute for 1 minute. Stir in the vegetable mixture and saute just until they have softened slightly, about 3 minutes. Add ground chicken.

7. Stage

Take a fork and shred one half of the spaghetti squash lengthwise into the skillet. Mix well and saute for about 2 minutes. Repeat with remaining spaghetti squash.

8. Stage

Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper and serve.
