Time 1h10m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 2-pound butternut squash, peeled, halved lengthwise, seeded and sliced into 1/2-inch-thick half-moons
3 tablespoons harissa paste
3 tablespoons honey
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 lemon, sliced
2 cloves garlic, smashed
1 teaspoon ground cumin
Kosher salt
2 teaspoons red wine vinegar
Torn fresh mint, for topping

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450˚ F. Put the squash in a foil-lined 9-by-13-inch baking dish and toss with the harissa, honey, olive oil, lemon, garlic, cumin and 1 teaspoon salt. Roast, tossing halfway through, until the squash is caramelized and tender, 50 to 60 minutes.

Tips:

  • Select butternut squash that feels heavy for its size and has unblemished skin.
  • Use a sharp knife to cut the butternut squash in half lengthwise. Be careful not to cut yourself.
  • Scoop out the seeds and pulp from the butternut squash using a spoon.
  • Drizzle the butternut squash with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
  • Roast the butternut squash at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 30-40 minutes, or until it is tender and slightly caramelized.
  • While the butternut squash is roasting, make the honey glaze by combining honey, butter, cinnamon, and nutmeg in a small saucepan.
  • Bring the honey glaze to a simmer over medium heat, stirring constantly.
  • Once the butternut squash is roasted, brush it with the honey glaze and return it to the oven for 5-10 minutes, or until the glaze is bubbly and caramelized.
  • Serve the honey-glazed butternut squash immediately.
