Get in the pan!!! What are you chicken?....

After an exhausting morning sending out resumes...I stopped to run over to the local Market Basket. I picked up some chicken cutlets(4 to be exact) and some spaghetti squash both on sale and then grabbed a bushel of basil and some shredded asiago and literally asked the deli guy for exactly 4 slices of prosciutto....after paying an outstanding $7.64 I headed back home.
Now I should preface this recipe by saying that over the weekend since I last checked in, I took stock of all the basics I still had in my cabinets and have been working on a list I have entitled "The Well Stocked Kitchen" ...That I will be posting along with money saving tips on how to get these basics with out having to spend allot...(lets face it if we had these basics we would be more likely to cook more and try more recipes...these are usually the items that prevent us from making something on a whim because what would cost $5 to make turns out to be $15 if you don't have the necessities on hand)....
Now back to the chicken...this is a twist on my "Chicken en Padella" which translates to chicken in the pan...and I am using fresh spaghetti squash steamed in beer in place of the starchy pasta.

Chicken in the pan
4 chicken cutlets                               fresh basil                                           small shallot finely diced
4 slices prosciutto                              sea salt pepper to taste                          asiago chz (1/4cup)

Preheat the oven to 350'  cut a triangle into the spaghetti squash and pour in beer (reserve 1/4 cup for the sauce) place in baking dish and bake for 1 hour. Take out and let cool while you heat skillet over medium heat ..add garlic and shallots and chicken..brown chicken on both sides. Add prosciutto chilli's and 1/4 cup beer and 1/4 cup of sherry and butter along with nutmeg and thyme. stir frequently and simmer so sauce reduces. In the meantime cut spaghetti squash open and scoop out the seeds (similar to pumpkin) and discard. Scoop out the fine stands of squash and place in a large bowl. add the lemon and sea salt pepper cheese and torn basil toss and serve.
