Ingredients

  • 1 2lb spaghetti squash
  • 3 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil divided
  • 1/2 teaspoons sea salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 4 garlic cloves minced, divided
  • 1 white onion diced
  • 2 cups broccoli florets
  • 1 cup mushrooms sliced thin
  • 2 handfuls fresh organic spinach
  • 1 pound frozen seafood medley defrosted
  • 1/3 cup dry white wine
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice divided
  • 1 teaspoon basil
  • 1 teaspoon parsley
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes more to taste
  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt more to taste
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground pepper more to taste

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375 °F.
  • Cut spaghetti squash in half and scoop out seeds. Drizzle with 1 teaspoon olive oil, sea salt, and black pepper.
  • Line baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Lay spaghetti squash face down on a baking sheet, and add 1/4 cup water. Bake for about 30 minutes until fork tender. Let cool.
  • In a large skillet, add 1 teaspoon olive oil over medium-high heat. Add in half of the garlic and cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Add onion, broccoli, and mushrooms and stir well. Let cook over medium-high heat for about 5-7 minutes, until onions are translucent. Add spinach and cook just until wilted. Turn off heat and set aside.
  • Pat seafood dry and season with salt and pepper.
  • Heat a separate skillet with remaining olive oil. Add remaining garlic and cook for 1-2 minutes, or until fragrant. Add seafood to the skillet and cook for 7-8 minutes, or until the seafood is fully cooked through.
  • Add white wine, and 1 tablespoon lemon juice and mix to combine. Simmer for an additional 1-2 minutes. Pour seafood and white wine sauce into the skillet with the vegetables. Add spaghetti squash and mix until well combined.
  • Add basil, parsley, garlic powder, red pepper flakes, salt and pepper, and the remaining lemon. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
  • Serve warm!

Notes

To defrost the seafood, simply run under cool water for a few minutes.
I used a frozen seafood medley I found at Whole Foods!
