Remove the squash from the oven and reduce the oven temperature to 375ºF. Allow the squash to cool, use tongs to flip the squash cut side up to release the heat quickly.
While squash is cooling, dice the chicken and season it with sea salt and pepper, cook until done, about 7 minutes, once cooked remove heat from the chicken.
Using a fork gently scrape the squash into a large bowl.
Add in the remaining ingredients to the squash (except the feta) and stir to combine (adjust the seasoning as needed).
Place the filling in a baking dish or back into the squash shells and top with the feta (optional), place the squash back in the oven for another 30 minutes.
Remove and serve.
