    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.

    🐓 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 (which prevents cross-contamination).
    Wash all utensils and cutting boards (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 Buffalo Chicken Spaghetti Squash Recipe (see recipe card for quantities): 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.
    Add the spaghetti squash to the skillet and toss together with the shredded carrots and chopped cabbage.
    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.
    Garnish with blue cheese crumbles and green onions.

      I loved this buffalo chicken spaghetti squash. It was delicious. The only thing I changed was that I did not add the blue cheese as I am not a fan, but the rest of the dish was perfect.
