Guest guest Posted February 9, 2006 Report Share Posted February 9, 2006 This was my first attempt at making butternut squash, and I was rather impressed with it. It's definitely a dish that speaks of cold weather and curling up next to a fire, and this should definitely be filed under the category " Comfort Food. " Pictures of the finished dish can be seen at http://28cooks.blogspot.com. 1 large butternut squash, peeled and cut into 2 " pieces 4 tbsp honey 4 tbsp brown sugar 4 cloves garlic, minced 1/4 tsp rubbed sage salt and pepper to taste 1/4 c olive oil 1 1/2 tsp lemon juice In large bowl, combine all ingredients. Place into oiled baking dish, and place on lowest rack in a 350 degree oven. Roast 1/2-1 hour, until tender, stirring often. I then took mine out of the oven and placed under the broiler for a few minutes, to lend a crisper finish to the squash. Serve and enjoy. **Note-I also had a smaller squash, and the cooking juices were a bit too thin for my liking. I strained my squash out of the juices, put them in a new baking dish. While they were under the broiler, I took the remaining marinade and boiled it in a small sauce pan until it was reduced to a lovely syrupy consistency. I then poured a bit over each serving, and was quite pleased with the results. Enjoy!! Christiane Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
