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.

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. Using a fork, gently scrape the rest of the spaghetti squash out. Fluff with the fork to get the strands loose.

    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.
