Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Set the oven to 405°F.
  2. Halve the yellow squash and scoop out some of the flesh and seeds to make boats.
  3. Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the garlic paste, then the ground chicken and cumin, and cook until the chicken is 70% done, breaking it up with a wooden spatula so it does not clump.
  4. Add the green chiles and cooked rice, mix, and cook until the chicken is 90% done.
  5. Place the squash halves on a baking sheet and fill them with the chicken and chile mixture.
  6. Top with the halved cherry tomatoes, then with about 1/2 tbsp of mozzarella per squash half.
  7. Bake for 20 minutes, until the squash is cooked but still firm.
