Yield Makes 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

6 tablespoons (3/4 stick) butter
1 3- to 31/2-pound butternut squash, cut lengthwise in half, peeled, seeded, cut into 1-inch cubes
1 1/4 cups low-salt chicken broth
1/3 cup pure maple syrup
1 tablespoon minced fresh thyme
1 teaspoon coarse kosher salt

Steps:

  • Melt butter in heavy large deep skillet over high heat. Add squash; sauté 1 minute. Add broth, syrup, thyme, salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper; bring to boil.

Return squash to skillet. Cook until tender, turning occasionally, 3 to 4 minutes. Season with more pepper, if desired.

Tips:

  • Choose butternut squash that is firm and heavy for its size, with a deep orange color.
  • To easily remove the squash's seeds, cut it in half lengthwise and scoop them out with a spoon.
  • Be careful when handling the squash, as the skin can be sharp.
  • If you don't have maple syrup, you can use honey or brown sugar as a substitute.
  • If you don't have Dijon mustard, you can use yellow mustard, but the flavor will be slightly different.
  • Serve the glazed butternut squash as a side dish with roasted chicken, pork, or fish.
  • You can also add other vegetables to the roasting pan, such as carrots, parsnips, or sweet potatoes.
