Categories     main-dish

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

2 cups grated butternut squash, squeezed dry, liquid reserved
1 cup grated apple (preferably tart, like a Granny Smith), squeezed dry, liquid reserved
2 tablespoons grated fresh ginger
1 large egg, lightly whisked
1/4 cup dry breadcrumbs, finely ground
1 teaspoon dried sage
1/2 teaspoon fresh rosemary, finely chopped
1 teaspoon kosher or sea salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Vegetable oil, for frying
2 tablespoons olive oil, plus more as needed
8 boneless, skinless chicken thighs (about 2 pounds)
Kosher salt or sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 yellow onion, thinly sliced
4 sprigs fresh thyme
1 cup apple cider
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
1/4 cup fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened

Steps:

  • For the butternut squash fritters: Place the squash, apple, ginger, egg, breadcrumbs, sage, rosemary, salt and pepper into a large bowl and stir together to combine.
  • Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat and coat the bottom with about 1/4 inch of oil. When the oil shimmers, scoop heaping tablespoons of the squash mixture and drop gently into the oil, pressing with the back of the spoon to slightly flatten. Fry in batches until brown and crisp, about 3 to 4 minutes per side. Drain on a plate lined with lightly crumpled paper towels. Sprinkle lightly with more salt before serving. Makes about 2 dozen fritters.
  • For the apple cider-glazed chicken thighs: Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season the chicken thighs on each side with 1 teaspoon salt and 1 teaspoon pepper, then cook in batches on each side until golden brown, about 5 minutes per side. Remove and set aside.
  • Lower the heat to medium and add the onions and 2 sprigs of thyme to the pan. Season with salt, add a little water, and scrape up the browned bits from the bottom of the skillet until the onions are golden and softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in the apple cider, vinegar and the reserved liquid from squeezing out the squash and apple. Simmer until reduced, 5 minutes.
  • Remove the thyme leaves from the remaining 2 sprigs of thyme, then finely chop the thyme, parsley, and tarragon. Set aside.
  • Whisk the butter into the reduced sauce, then add the chicken thighs back to the pan to warm through for 2 or 3 minutes, coating with the glaze and sprinkling with the fresh herbs. Check that the thighs have reached an internal temperature of 165 degrees F, then serve with the Butternut Squash Fritters.

GLAZED BUTTERNUT SQUASH



GLAZED BUTTERNUT SQUASH image

Categories     Side     Braise     Vegetarian     Squash

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon minced garlic
11/2 pounds butternut or other winter squash, peeled and cut into 1/2- to 1-inch cubes
1/4 cup vegetable stock or water
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Chopped parsley leaves for garnish

Steps:

  • 1. Put the oil and garlic in a large, deep skillet with a tight-fitting lid over medium heat. When the garlic begins to color, add the squash and stock and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, cover, and turn the heat down to low. Cook, stirring once or twice, until the squash is tender, about 15 minutes. 2. Uncover the pan and raise the heat to medium-high. Cook, shaking the pan occasionally and stirring somewhat less often, until all the liquid is evaporated and the squash has begun to brown, 5 to 10 minutes. Turn the heat back down to low and cook until the squash is as browned and crisp as you like. Taste and adjust the seasoning, garnish, and serve.

Tips:

  • Choose the right squash: Look for butternut squash that is firm and has a deep orange color. Avoid squash that is bruised or has soft spots.
  • Roast the squash before glazing: Roasting the squash helps to bring out its natural sweetness and makes it more tender. You can roast the squash in the oven or on a grill.
  • Make the glaze ahead of time: The glaze can be made up to 2 days in advance and stored in the refrigerator. This makes it easy to prepare the dish at the last minute.
  • Use a variety of spices: The spices in the glaze add flavor and depth to the dish. Feel free to experiment with different combinations of spices to find your favorite.
  • Serve the squash warm: Butternut squash is best served warm, so glaze it just before serving. You can also reheat the squash in the oven or microwave if necessary.

Conclusion:

Glazed butternut squash is a delicious and versatile dish that can be served as a side dish or main course. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With its sweet and savory flavor, glazed butternut squash is a surefire hit with everyone who tries it.
