Anchovy Spaghetti

You heard me, have you ever had one?  These salty little fish add big flavor to this dish!

Anchovy Spaghetti (2 servings)
1 Can anchovies
1 Spaghetti squash
8-12 oz Shrimp cooked
2-3 Cloves of garlic chopped
Olive Oil

Preheat oven oven to 425 degrees F. Slice spaghetti squash in half  (length or width) and remove seeds with a spoon.  Coat inside of squash with olive oil, and half of your chopped garlic, and lightly sprinkle with salt and place cut side of squash down, shell side out on a baking sheet.  Place in heated oven.  Cook squash until done, about 45min.  The shell will dent to the touch when done.  Remove from oven and flip squash open so it can cool.  While squash is cooling, open the can of anchovies and place in frying pan on low to med-low heat.  Careful of oil splattering with heat. Add the rest of chopped garlic.  As garlic and anchovies cook; use a spatula to separate anchovies into small bits. If dry add small amounts of olive oil. When anchovies are separated and garlic softened, add shrimp and turn heat to very low.  If dry add small amounts of olive oil.  After squash is cooled enough to handle with your hands, scrape squash out of its shell onto baking sheet (it collects any leftover olive oil, garlic and salt).  Turn heat to medium low on the anchovy shrimp pan.  Add spaghetti squash to  pan stirring frequently. Add all of the squash, continually stirring so that anchovies and shrimp are distributed throughout  squash.  Continue to cook if needed to burn off excess water from squash.  Otherwise dish up and enjoy! This will make about 2  servings depending on squash size.  If this is your main course make sure there is enough shrimp to be an ample protein.  You may also serve with no shrimp and with a side of
grilled chicken or pork chop. The next time I make this I want to try in more of a stir fry style.  Adding broccoli, carrots, and water chest nuts, and possibly and egg or chicken breast.  Another idea would be to add spinach along when adding the shrimp in the original recipe.  If anyone else tries these let me know how they turn out.


*Watch your anchovy ingredients

*I like garlic!  The more the merrier!
*This doesn't win the award for most attractive dish, but it does taste pretty good and it easy to make.
