Directions:Heat oven to 190º.
Make cuts in the spaghetti squash in a circle, going lengthwise. You will be cutting it in half, so make the cuts with that in mind.
Microwave the squash for 3-5 minutes to soften.
Cut in half. Coat each half with a layer of olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Use a brush to coat thoroughly.
Coat a baking tray with foil and place the coated squash halves face-down on the sheet. Bake for 40 minutes.
Cut the chicken into strips and season with salt and pepper.
Bread the chicken by rolling the strips in flour, dipping into beaten egg and then dipped in the bread crumbs.
I recommend using cast iron for the cooking of the chicken but any skillet will work.
Cook the breaded chicken in a little olive oil until crispy, about 2 to 4 minutes. Do not let them burn.
Carefully turn over the cooked squashes and shred the interiors using a fork.
Pour a layer of sauce over the squash and the chicken strips in a layer across each side. I use approximately two breast per piece.
Pour another layer of sauce over the chicken. Sprinkle with parmesan cheese.
Bake for 15 minutes to melt the cheese.
Serve hot with Garlic bread. Enjoy! |

Notes: You can use less chicken per squash half if you want to serve with bread and salad or just want it to be less filling.
