• 2 tbsp Unsalted Butter (cut into cubes)
• 1 cup Heavy Cream (full‑fat)
• 4 oz Cream Cheese (softened, room temperature)
• 2 clove Garlic (minced)

   Place the chicken breasts in a saucepan, add the chicken broth, bring to a gentle simmer, and cook for about 15 minutes until the chicken is fully cooked through.

3. Prepare Spaghetti Squash

   While the chicken cooks, cut the spaghetti squash in half lengthwise, scoop out the seeds, place the halves cut‑side down in the baking dish, add a splash of water to the bottom, and bake for 40 minutes until the flesh is fork‑tender.

   In the saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat, add minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute. Stir in the heavy cream, cream cheese, and grated Parmesan. Season with salt and pepper, and simmer gently for 5‑7 minutes until the sauce thickens and coats the back of a spoon.
