Description

This seasonal squash recipe is a staple for all things fall. 


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 2 acorn or kabocha squash, seeded and sliced into half-moons
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 12 tablespoons chopped fresh rosemary
  • Kosher salt and black pepper
  • Pinch of chili flakes
  • 1 stick (8 tablespoons) salted butter
  • 1 cup raw hazelnuts, roughly chopped


Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
  2. On a baking sheet, toss together the squash, olive oil, brown sugar, rosemary, red pepper flakes, and a pinch each of kosher salt and pepper, tossing to coat. Transfer to the oven and roast for 30-40 minutes, until the squash is golden and tender, turning halfway through cooking.
  3. Meanwhile, heat the butter, hazelnuts, and a pinch of salt in a skillet. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the butter is browned and the hazelnuts are toasted. Remove from the heat.
  4. Arrange the squash on a serving plate, pour over the brown butter, and top it with hazelnuts.
