Directions

Prep 10 minCook 30 min
  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 425°F. Halve the spaghetti squash lengthwise, remove seeds and strings, and place cut-side down on a lined baking sheet.

  2. 2

    Place the chicken on another foil-lined baking sheet, drizzle with half the olive oil, and season with salt and pepper.

  3. 3

    Bake the chicken and squash for 25 minutes. Check the squash for tenderness and continue baking if necessary.

  4. 4

    In a skillet over medium heat, add the remaining olive oil. Cook the onions until soft, then add garlic and cook for another minute.

  5. 5

    Add the spinach to the skillet and cook until wilted. Stir in the artichokes and cook for an additional minute. Remove from heat.

  6. 6

    In a bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, mayonnaise, lemon juice, salt, and pepper until smooth.

  7. 7

    Drain excess liquid from the spinach mixture, shred the chicken, and add both to the skillet. Stir in the cream sauce and heat through.

  8. 8

    Use a fork to scrape the spaghetti squash into strands.

  9. 9

    Fill the squash halves with the chicken mixture to create boats, or mix everything in a large bowl for serving.

  10. 10

    Garnish with parmesan and crushed red pepper flakes.
