Mediterranean Chicken Spaghetti Squash

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Mediterranean Chicken Spaghetti Squash.

1. Step 1

   Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C).

2. Step 2

   While that warms up, take your spaghetti squash and slice it in half lengthwise.

3. Step 3

   Place the squash halves cut-side down in a baking pan, and pour a little water around them to keep things moist.

4. Step 4

   Pop the pan into the oven and let it bake for about 45 minutes, or until the squash is tender enough to easily pierce with a fork.

5. Step 5

   Once it’s done, give it a moment to cool for about 5 to 10 minutes before you dive in.

6. Step 6

   Carefully scoop out the seeds and then use a fork to scrape the flesh into delightful strands that resemble spaghetti.

7. Step 7

   Next, grab a large skillet and heat up a tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat.

   Toss in your chicken pieces and cook them, stirring occasionally, until they’re lightly browned—this should take around 3 minutes per side.

    Add in the chopped onion, minced garlic, and a splash of hot sauce, cooking everything until the onion becomes soft and fragrant, which should take about 5 minutes.
