Description

This AIP Crock Pot Butternut Squash Chicken & Pasta is a quick and easy weeknight meal. The perfect nightshade-free and dairy-free pasta dish!

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 yellow onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 15 oz can butternut squash puree
  • 1 cup bone broth or water
  • 2 tsp Italian seasoning
  • 1 1/2 tsp sea salt (plus more to taste)
  • 1 1/2 lbs chicken thighs or breasts
  • 1 8oz box cassava fusilli

Instructions

  1. Add the diced onion, minced garlic, butternut squash, bone broth and seasonings to the bowl of your crockpot and give it a stir to incorporate. Then nestle in the chicken. Cover and cook on high for 3-4 hours or on low for 6-8 hours.
  2. Just before the chicken is finished, cook the cassava fusilli according to the package directions.
  3. When the crockpot cooking cycle is complete, shred the chicken with two forks (I just do this right in the crockpot). Stir to combine. Serve the Butternut Squash Chicken on top of the cassava fusilli and add sea salt to taste.
