These make great appetizers or a yummy side dish. Adapted from BH&G magazine. To make it easier to peel squash, cut squash in half, seed, then place in microwave for about 1-2 minutes. The skin will be softer and easier to peel. Ingredients:
1 1/2 lbs butternut squash, peeled, seeded, and cut into 3/4-inch cubes (or other winter squash) |
1 teaspoon orange peel, finely shredded |
1/2 cup orange juice |
2 scallions, finely chopped (or green onions) |
3 tablespoons soy sauce |
1 tablespoon brown sugar |
2 teaspoons oil |
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (optional) |
Directions:
1. Place squash in a lightly greased 13x9x2-inch baking pan.
2. In a small bowl combine orange peel, orange juice, scallions, soy sauce, brown sugar, oil, and red pepper flakes.
3. Drizzle over squash, tossing to coat.
4. Roast, uncovered, in a 425*F. oven for 20-25 minutes or until squash is tender, stirring several times. Stir cubes again before serving.
5. Place a toothpick in each squash cube, if using for appetizers. Serve warm.
6. Makes about 48 appetizers.
