Steps
Sequence Step
1First, cut your spaghetti squash in half "hot dog style". You won''t need the entire thing. Place the squash middle down on a microwave safe plate. Stab in with a fork 6-7 times (this will allow the steam to escape while it is cooking). Pour a few millimeters of water onto the plate and cover with plastic wrap. Place in the microwave for 10 minutes on high.
2While your squash is spinning around, heat a pan on the stove, or plug in your George Forman. Oil your cooking surface with a smidgeon of olive oil. Sprinkle your lemon pepper on both sides of your chicken breast and place it in the Forman. I use the frozen chicken breasts that you can buy in the freezer section of your grocery. They are very convenient. I don''t even defrost them before cooking and they always turn out juicy and tender. Mine usually cook up in about 10 minutes using the George Forman. If you are using a pan, just turn them over when they are golden brown. Make sure you cook the chicken all the way. Nobody wants to get sick here.
3Your spaghetti squash should be done by now. Use hot pads when you take it out and take caution not to dump the water on yourself. That would be a mistake. Remove the plastic wrap and flip your squash over. Using a fork, remove the squash from the shell, fluffing it as you do. It looks like spaghetti, right? Who would have thought? Anyway, put about a cup of this on your plate. If you are serving more than just yourself, do the same for your amigos. If not, just wrap up the wrest and store it in the fridge. This is where I add a little butter, salt, and pepper.
4Slice your chicken, or don''t, and place it on your plate. I like green stuff. Specifically the Kale blend. So, I put a bunch of that on my plate as well. I don''t really love salad dressings, but if you do, go right ahead and dump it all over those babies. Get your fruit on by pouring some applesauce into a little dish and dust some cinnamon sugar on it.
5That''s it. You''re done. The only thing left to do is eat it. Well, that, and do your dishes. Because no one likes ''that'' roommate. Yeah, don''t be that guy.
