Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees (F).
- Scoop the shredded spaghetti squash (you should have about 2 1/2 cups) out of the shells and into a large bowl. Add the marinara sauce, seasoning, and garlic powder, mix well to combine.
- Divide the saucy spaghetti squash evenly into the shells, then top with mozzarella cheese (1/4 cup per side).
- Place the spaghetti squash "boats" on a large baking sheet, and place pan in the oven for 5-6 minutes, or unlit the cheese is melted.
- In the meantime, make your shrimp!
- Add the olive oil to a large skillet and place over medium-high heat. Generously season shrimp with salt and pepper. Add shrimp to skillet once the oil has begun to sizzle, and cook for 45 seconds on each side, or until the shrimp are just pink and no longer translucent.
- Remove shrimp from heat; set aside.
- Once the cheese has melted on the spaghetti squash, carefully remove the pan from the oven, and top with shrimp (3 per side), parmesan cheese (1 tablespoon per side), and breadcrumbs (1 tablespoon per side). Place pan back in the oven for another 4 minutes.
- Transfer squash boats to a serving platter, sprinkle with parsley or basil if preferred, and serve at once.
