Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 spaghetti squash (2 lb.)
2-1/2 cups small broccoli florets
2 Tbsp. KRAFT Lite Zesty Italian Dressing
1 lb. boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into strips
2 tsp. flour
1 cup fat-free reduced-sodium chicken broth
4 oz. (1/2 of 8-oz. pkg.) PHILADELPHIA Neufchatel Cheese, cubed
1/2 cup KRAFT Shredded Parmesan Cheese
1/8 tsp. each black pepper and ground nutmeg

Steps:

  • Pierce squash in several places with tip of sharp knife or fork; place in shallow microwaveable dish. Microwave on HIGH 10 to 15 min. or until squash is softened, turning every 5 min. Cool slightly.
  • Meanwhile, place broccoli in microwaveable bowl. Add enough water to cover broccoli. Microwave 3 to 4 min. or until broccoli is crisp-tender; drain.
  • Heat dressing in large nonstick skillet on medium heat. Add chicken; cook 4 to 5 min. or until done, stirring occasionally. Remove chicken from skillet, reserving drippings in skillet; cover chicken to keep warm.
  • Whisk flour and broth until blended. Add to drippings in skillet along with remaining ingredients; stir. Cook 2 min. or until sauce comes to boil, stirring constantly to scrape browned bits from bottom of skillet. Cook and stir 1 to 2 min. or until thickened.
  • Return chicken to skillet along with the broccoli; cook 1 to 2 min. or until heated through, stirring frequently.
  • Cut squash in half; remove and discard seeds. Use fork to scrape insides of squash into strands; place in bowl. Serve topped with chicken mixture.
