Spaghetti Squash Lo Mein


Ingredients:

  • 1 2-1/2- to 3-pound spaghetti squash, halved lengthwise and seeded
  • 2 tablespoons reduced-sodium tamari or reduced-sodium soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon Shao Xing rice wine (see Tip) or dry sherry
  • 1 tablespoon Sriracha (Optional)
  • 1 ½ teaspoons honey
  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil
  • 6 scallions, trimmed and cut into 1-inch lengths
  • 1 large clove garlic, minced
  • 2 teaspoons minced fresh ginger
  • 1 large carrot, trimmed and cut into matchsticks
  • 1 large bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 cup snow peas, trimmed and halved

Method: 

  1. Place squash cut-side down in a microwave-safe dish; add 2 tablespoons water. Microwave, uncovered, on High until the flesh is tender, about 10 minutes. (Alternatively, place squash halves cut-side down on a rimmed baking sheet.
  2. Bake in a 400 degrees F oven until the squash is tender, 40 to 50 minutes.) When the squash is cool enough to handle, scrape out the flesh into a medium bowl.
  3. Meanwhile, combine soy sauce, rice wine (or sherry), Sriracha (if using), honey in a small bowl.
  4. Heat oil in a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat.
  5. Add scallions, garlic and ginger; cook for 15 seconds.
  6. Add carrot, bell pepper and snow peas and cook, stirring frequently, until the vegetables are tender, 3 to 5 minutes.
  7. Add the squash and sauce to the vegetables and toss to coat.
  8. Cook until heated through, about 1 minute more.
