Equipment

Ingredients
  

  • 1 (3 to 4 pound) spaghetti squash
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 tbsp fresh basil chopped
  • 2 tbsp fresh flat-leaf parsley chopped
  • pink salt
  • cracked black pepper
  • 1/2 cup Fresh grated Parmesan cheese + more for serving

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degress F.
  • With a very sharp knife, cut the squash in half lengthwise. You can microwave the entire squash for 3 to 5 minutes to make cutting it easier.
  • Scoop out the seeds. Then place the halves cut side down on a rimmed baking sheet or in a shallow baking dish. Add a bit of water, just enough to cover the bottom of the pan.
  • Cook the squash for 35 to 45 minutes. Begin checking at 30 minutes. Squash is done when you can easily pierce the side with a knife.
  • Allow squash to cool a bit, then carefully scrape the flesh out with a fork, which will separate it into spaghetti-like strands.
  • Heat the butter in a large skillet, over medium heat. Once the butter has melted, add the minced garlic and cook until it begins to turn golden.
  • Remove the skillet from the heat and add the shredded spaghetti squash, basil, parsley, Parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper. Toss with tongs to combine.
  • Serve with extra Parmesan, basil, and parsley, if desired.
