CHICKEN WITH TATUMA SQUASH ( POLLO CON CALABACITA )



Chicken With Tatuma Squash ( Pollo Con Calabacita ) image

After buying tatuma squash on a whim, I had to find a way to use it. Tatuma, or Mexican white squash, is native to Latin America. Similar to zucchini in shape, size and texture, Tatuma has a soft green skin with a slightly firm white flesh. If you can't find tatuma, zucchini or summer squash can be substituted. If using zucchini or summer squash, which cook faster than tatuma, add to the pan 5 minutes before the chicken is done.

RICK'S TATUMA SQUASH



Rick's Tatuma Squash image

I like all the summer squashes (yellow, zucchini, cucuzzi, etc.) and my family usually just tolerates them so when I decided to try tatumas I tried to find something to interest them. After reading different ways to fix them I came up with this combination. It was a big hit and they never complain when I fix it.
