FOUR CHEESE CHICKEN STUFFED SPAGHETTI SQUASH
INGREDIENTS:
- 1 large spaghetti squash, halved and seeds removed
- 4 garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tablespoons fresh minced thyme
- fresh cracked black pepper and salt, to taste
- 1 cup cooked and shredded chicken
- 1/2 cup chicken broth
- 1 cup half and half
- 1 1/2 cups four-cheese Italian blend shredded cheese
- 2 tablespoons minced chives
DIRECTIONS:
- Preheat oven to 400°F.
- Place spaghetti squash cut side up on a baking pan/dish. If your spaghetti squash does not sit level, make a little stand with foil by crunching it up into an oval bowl shape formed to the bottom of your spaghetti squash.
- Divide garlic, thyme, black pepper, salt and shredded chicken between both empty cavities of the spaghetti squash.
- Divide the chicken broth and half and half in each half of spaghetti squash, filling to the top. Gently stir the mixture.
- Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, until the squash is fork tender.
- Remove squash from oven and turn broiler on low.
- Using two forks, pull spaghetti squash away from the edges of the squash to easily shred it. (Watch the video at the top of the page to see how I did it.)
- Top both halves with cheese and place under the broiler until cheese is melted and slightly toasted. This will only take a minute or two, so watch closely.
- Top with chives (and extra thyme if you love it like I do) and serve immediately!
