Instructions
- Add squash, 1/2 tsp (1 tsp) Middle Eastern Seasoning and 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil to a parchment-lined baking sheet. Season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat.
- Roast in the middle of the oven, stirring halfway through, until tender and golden brown, 20-22 min.
- Meanwhile, pat chicken dry with paper towels. Sprinkle with remaining Middle Eastern Seasoning, then season with salt and pepper.
- Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat.

- While chicken is in the oven, heat the same pan over medium.
- When hot, add almonds. Toast, stirring often, until golden, 3-4 min. (TIP: Keep your eye on them so they don't burn!) Transfer to a plate.
