Process
Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Carefully slice the spaghetti squash in half lengthwise, scoop out the seeds, and season the flesh with olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and Italian seasoning.
- Place the squash halves cut-side up on a baking sheet and roast for 35-40 minutes, or until the squash is tender and easily pulls into strands with a fork.
- Marinate the chicken breast in barbecue sauce for 20 minutes.
- Heat a pan over medium heat and cook the marinated chicken for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C). Let the chicken rest, then slice it into strips.
- Once the spaghetti squash is done, use a fork to shred it into strands. Top the shredded squash with the barbecue chicken, sliced red onion, and Colby Jack cheese.
- Place under the broiler on high for 3-4 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Drizzle with additional barbecue sauce and sprinkle with extra red onion if desired. Enjoy!
