I love cooking with Spaghetti Squash and since we love Buffalo Chicken in our house, putting this Buffalo Chicken Spaghetti Squash dish together for dinner one night was a no brainer.
If you need a little help figuring out how to cut and cook your spaghetti squash, check out my short tutorial on How to Cook Spaghetti Squash. If you've never cooked a Spaghetti Squash then you need to read up. For this recipe, I recommend the microwave to save you some time while you are cooking the chicken.
🐓 How to Handle Raw Chicken
Leave the chicken in the fridge until ready to use.
Be careful of dripping juices. Clean up immediately.
Do not wash raw chicken (prevents cross-contamination).
Wash all utensils and cutting board (if applicable).
If marinating the chicken, make sure you toss the juices before you cook. Don't ever use the juice from the marinade.
Wash your hands after handling raw chicken.

📋 What Ingredients do I need
You will need the following ingredients to make this Delicious Recipe: Spaghetti Squash, Green Onions, Chicken Breasts, Olive Oil, Garlic Cloves, Carrots, Purple Cabbage, Frank's Hot Sauce and Blue Cheese.
🥣 How do I make Buffalo Chicken Spaghetti Squash
Heat a large skillet with the olive oil. Saute the garlic and green onions until golden. Add the chicken and cook for 5-7 minutes until the chicken is cooked through.
While the chicken is cooking, cook the spaghetti squash using your preferred method. For this recipe, it might be quicker and easier to use the microwave.
Using a fork, gently scrape the rest of the spaghetti squash out. Fluff with the fork to get the strands loose.

Stir in the Frank's Hot Sauce. You might want to gradually add the hot sauce and taste. Remember you can always add more hot sauce but you can't remove it once it's in the pan.
