ROASTED BUTTERNUT SQUASH, RED GRAPES, AND SAGE

Yield Makes 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 2 1/4-pound butternut squash, peeled, seeded, cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces
1 1/2 cups seedless red grapes (about 8 ounces)
1 medium onion, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 tablespoon thinly sliced fresh sage leaves
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons (1/4 stick) unsalted butter, melted
1/4 cup pine nuts, toasted

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425°F. Combine butternut squash, grapes, onion, and sage in large bowl. Drizzle with oil and melted butter. Season generously with salt and pepper. Toss to coat. Spread out onto large rimmed baking sheet. Roast until squash and onion begin to brown, stirring occasionally, about 50 minutes. Transfer to platter, sprinkle with toasted pine nuts, and serve.

Tips:

  • Choose the right squash: Look for firm, heavy butternut squash with smooth, unblemished skin. Avoid squash with soft spots or bruises.
  • Roast the squash at a high temperature: This will help to caramelize the natural sugars in the squash and give it a delicious, roasted flavor.
  • Use fresh herbs and spices: Sage and cranberries are a classic combination for butternut squash, but you can also experiment with other herbs and spices, such as rosemary, thyme, or cinnamon.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When roasting the squash, make sure to leave enough space between the pieces so that they can roast evenly.
  • Roast the squash until it is tender: The squash should be tender when pierced with a fork, but not so soft that it falls apart.

Conclusion:

Roasted butternut squash with sage and cranberries is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for fall and winter meals. The squash is naturally sweet and flavorful, and the sage and cranberries add a touch of savory and tartness. This dish can be served as a side dish or main course, and it is also a great addition to salads, soups, and stews.
