Delicata Squash and parmesan Chicken Bake

Find it On Pinterest

Cook's Note: I frequent a local farm stand in our area during the summer time and I ran upon this DELICATA squash that I was not familiar with at all. 

The person there told me it was a fall squash and delicious and tasted like a butternut squash or acorn squash, so I thought I'd give it a try. GOODNESS ME! It is even better than butternut squash - it will knock your socks off! This recipe is devine and you just HAVE to give it a try! 

What You Will Need: 

2 Delicata Squash (washed, seeded and chopped)

3-4 Chicken Breasts, chopped

Package of Cherry Tomatoes - chopped

2 cloves of garlic - chopped

3 Tbps of Olive Oil

1 cup of shredded Parmesan cheese

Sea Salt and Ground Black Pepper to taste

Directions: 

Once you've chopped your delicata squash, tomatoes and chicken, place in a large freezer bag and add olive oil, garlic, salt and pepper and cheese. Shake the bag well to coat and mix. Pour contents of bag into an oven safe dish sprayed with non-stick cooking spray. Sprinkle with a little more of the Parmesan cheese, just to give it a coating and bake at 400 degrees for 60 minutes. 

Here is the Delicata Squah, chopped - doesn't it look amazing!?

ENJOY!
