Looking for a veggie-heavy meal that packs a ton of flavor? This Spaghetti Squash Chow Mein is your answer! Now, I realize that chow mein is supposed to be fried noodles

Ingredients :
  • 1.25 lb boneless skinless chicken breasts, sliced into very thin strips
  • ▢1 large spaghetti squash, (750 grams flesh)
  • ▢2 tsp olive oil, divided
  • ▢1 medium red bell pepper, sliced, (170 grams)
  • ▢8 oz shredded cabbage, (227 grams)
  • ▢6 oz snow peas, trimmed, (170 grams)
  • ▢2/3 cup matchstick carrots, (100 grams)
  • ▢1/3 cup green onions, (20 grams)
  • ▢1 medium shallot, diced, (45 grams)
  • ▢1 tbsp ginger, grated
  • ▢1/2 tsp Flavor God Garlic Lover's Seasoning
  • Sauce
  • ▢1/3 cup no salt added chicken broth
  • ▢1/4 cup oyster sauce
  • ▢2 tbsp low sodium soy sauce
  • ▢1 tbsp sesame oil
  • ▢1/2 tbsp light brown sugar
  • ▢1 tbsp corn starch
Directions :

  1. Whisk sauce ingredients and set aside.

  2. Pre-heat oven to 400 degrees. Cut spaghetti squash in half and scoop out seeds. Rub cut sides with 1 tsp olive oil and season with Flavor God seasoning. Bake for 35-40 minutes until flesh flakes away easily with a fork.

  3. Heat remaining olive oil in a large pan over medium high heat. Sauté shallot and ginger until fragrant, then add chicken. Sauté until cooked through. Remove from pan and set aside.

  4. Add bell pepper, snow peas, carrots, and green onions to pan and saute. After about 1 minute, add 1 tbsp of water and cover the pan. Continue sautéing covered for 2-3 more minutes until veggies are tender crisp. Add cabbage to the pan, cover, and sauté for 1 more minute.

  5. Return chicken to the pan, then add noodles and sauce. Mix to combine and coat noodles evenly. After about 2 minutes, remove from heat and divide evenly into 5 serving dishes.
