I found a pin and followed the recipe to Lexi's Clean Kitchen! I was SUPER skeptical! And SUPER surprised with the outcome!
Ingredients
- 1 medium-sized spaghetti squash
- 2 cloves garlic, crushed
- 1/2 red onion, chopped (Noticed after the fact the original recipe shows the red onion in bigger strips. I would not dice next time, or would use the strips)
- 1/2 cup mushrooms, chopped (I omitted because the hubs hates)
- 1/2 cup carrots, chopped
- 1/2 cup sprouts (I found canned in the Asian food section)
- 1/2 cup scallions, chopped (Chop bigger, not diced)
- 10-20 large shrimps (Omitted, just didn't feel like shrimp)
- 2 chicken breasts, cooked and shredded (I used a rotisserie chicken)
- 2-3 organic eggs (3 regular eggs)
Sauce
- 2 tbsp coconut aminos (I used soy sauce)
- Optional: 2 tbsp oyster sauce (YES)
- 3 tbsp seasoned rice vinegar
- 1 tsp red pepper flakes
- 1 tsp ground garlic (Out, I used onion powder)
- Instructions
- 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees
- 2. Roast spaghetti squash and set aside (I cooked mine in the microwave to save time.)
- 3. In a bowl mix together sauce ingredients and set aside
- 4. In a large pan, sauté 1 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil with 2 garlic cloves crushed, half of a red onion chopped, chopped mushrooms, carrots, sprouts, and scallions (and any other veggies you like) (Omitted mushrooms, added broccoli. Would add bell peppers in the future. Sauteed for probably 8 minutes)
- 5. Once cooked down, add shrimp and chicken (uncooked or slow cooker chicken) and cook for 5-8 minutes, until protein is cooked (Just chicken, already cooked so only 5 minutes to heat through)
- 6. Add in spaghetti squash (approx. 3 cups) and sauce mixture, mix well to combine
- 7. Make a space in the center of your pan and add in 2 (or 3) eggs (Was unclear what exactly to do here. I scrambled the eggs prior to putting them in. I let them cook for about 3-5 minutes and then stirred through. It didn't look cooked and I was nervous about stirring through, but I went ahead and it worked.)
- 8. Let cook and mix well throughout the mixture. (Probably another 5 minutes)
- 9. Taste and adjust spices to desired liking
- Optional: Top with extra scallions and finely chopped peanuts on top (I would absolutely not put peanuts on. I love kung pao, but this is not the place for it in my opinion.)
