Day 6: Mustard Chicken and Squash-Sketti

Mustard Chicken with Squash Sketti



New recipe today. I was looking at my husband's digestive health cookbook and found this mustard chicken recipe and decided to pair it with one of my favorite sides. I got a Vegetti- a spiral vegetable cutter. Tonight I used both summer squash and zucchini.

Mustard Chicken:

2lbs. chicken thighs
1TB honey
3T brown mustard
1 clove garlic
1T butter
salt and pepper to taste

Preheat oven 350. Take a 9x13 Pyrex dish and place the butter and garlic in dish. Put the dish in the oven and let the garlic and butter melt in the dish. While it is in the oven take a small bowl and combine the brown mustard and honey. Take the Pyrex dish out of the oven and arrange the chicken in one layer. Slather the chicken with the mustard sauce. Salt and Pepper and place in oven. Cook chicken in the oven 45min to an hr.


Squash-sketti:
3 Medium Summer Squash
3 Medium Zucchini
1tsp garlic
1tsp olive oil
Salt and Pepper

Take your Vegetti and make spaghetti like spirals of squash. (You could also just cut small disks.) In a small non-stick pan place oil and garlic. Sautee for just a couple mins. then add your squash. Toss with tongs for a couple of minutes do not over cook. You want squash to be crisp not soggy.

The vegetti is great for making pasta substitute. I have made "spaghetti" and meatballs and it is great.
