Description

Delicious Shrimp Scampi topped with Spaghetti Squash baked with a tasty layer of bubbly cheese.  Need I say more?


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 lbs shrimp, tails removed
  • 1 lg or 2 small spaghetti squashes
  • 1/2 cup white wine, I used pinot grigio
  • 1/4 cup gluten free Panko, I like Aleia’s
  • 1 cup shredded monetary jack cheese
  • 1/4 cup grated parmigiano reggiano cheese
  • 3 tbsp butter
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 small shallot, minced
  • 1 small lemon
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced
  • Pinch of red pepper flakes
  • Italian parlsey, chopped

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
  • Cut the spaghetti squash in half and scoop out the insides where the seeds are.  Drizzle with a little EVOO and rub with your hands so that the whole inside is coated nicely.  Sprinkle with some Salt and Pepper and add cut side down to a baking sheet. Bake for 30 minutes then remove and flip.  Add back to the oven and bake for another 20 minutes.  You know it will be done once you could create noodles easily with a fork.  Use a fork and go back and forth to create noodles in the spaghetti squash and set aside.
  • Turn on your broil to high.  Oven rack should be one below the highest setting.
  • Get all of your ingredients prepared for the Shrimp Scampi.  Start by removing the tails and cleaning your shrimp and patting dry.  Mince the garlic and shallot.
  • Grab a 12 inch oven safe nonstick pan and heat at medium high. Once hot, add in 1 tbsp of Olive oil and 1 tbsp of butter.  Season the shrimp with salt, pepper, and garlic powder both sides. When the butter melts, swirl the pan a few times then add in the shrimp in a single layer. Cook for 1 minute then flip and cook for another 1 minute.
  • Drop the heat to medium and remove the shrimp to a bowl.  Add in 2 tbsp of butter and olive oil to the pan. Once melted, add in the minced shallot and sauté for 1-2 minutes. Add in the 4 minced garlic cloves and sauté for 1 minute.
  • Add in 1/2 cup white wine and let reduce for 2 minutes. Add in the juice of 1 lemon ensuring no seeds go in and let cook for 1 minute stirring often. add in a nice pinch of salt and red pepper flake and stir.  Now add in your spaghetti squash and mix up so that the noodles separate and are Incorporated in the sauce.
  • Add back in the shrimp and juices in the bowl to the pan.  Mix up so that everything is combined nicely then turn heat off.  Sprinkle with the cheeses so that it covers everything.  Melt 1 tbsp of butter in a small bowl and add in the 1/4 cup of Panko.  Mix up with a spoon then sprinkle on top of the cheese layer.
  • Add to the oven and let broil for 2-3 minutes.  I like to turn the pan halfway through to get even melting.  Keep eyes during this whole process because it bubbles quick and the Panko browns fast.  Remove from oven then top with a nice sprinkle of the Italian Parsley.

Notes

If you are using 2 spaghetti squash, add in the 3 halves and mix up.  If you feel its enough spaghetti squash with the sauce, save the 1 remaining halve for something else.

The Ultimate Grilled Chicken Queso Sandwich

Had to bust out the grill for something tasty now that it's summer time! I wanted to do a grilled chicken sandwich and knew it would go perfectly with @goodfoods delicious queso blanco dip! The flavor combo and texture of everything was very special and I hope you guys enjoy it as much as I did!  Also make sure to check out @goodfoods delicious healthy dip selection that will add some fun to your summer BBQS!  #AD

RECIPE BELOW:

INGREDIENTS:

2 lb boneless skinless chicken breast
6 sesame seed buns
1 pack provolone cheese slices
good foods guacamole
good foods spicy queso blanco dip
romaine lettuce, shredded
1 vine ripened tomato
diamond kosher salt
2 tbsp butter, softened
1 tbsp butter, melted

SPICE MIX:

3 tbsp paprika
1 tbsp onion powder
2 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp pepper
1 tsp thyme
1 tsp cayenne pepper
1 tsp oregano

STEPS:

Mix up the spice mix ingredients in a bowl and set aside. 

Cut the chicken breasts in half and butterfly if thicker. Pound out so that all of the chicken pieces are a similar thickness. Soften the 2 tbsp of butter and rub over each side of the chicken. Sprinkle with a nice layer of salt and the blackening spice mix on each side. Prep your buns by slicing them in half then brushing with some of the melted butter. 

Turn your grill on to 500 degrees. Grill for 3-4 minutes on the first side then flip and top with the provolone cheese slices so that it covers the whole chicken surface. Cover and grill for another 3-4 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and chicken is cooked to 165 degrees. Remove from the grill then add on the buttered buns and let that toast up for 1-2 minutes until they get some grill marks and are a little bit toasty. Remove from the grill.

Let's plate this baby up. Grab your bottom bun and spread with a nice layer of the goodfoods guacamole. Top with some of the shredded romaine lettuce, thinly sliced tomato, then the chicken breast. Top with a few spoonfuls of the goodfoods queso blanco dip, pickles, and some onion strings. Spread some guacamole on the top bun and then it's time to eat!
