ROASTED CHICKEN THIGHS WITH WINTER SQUASH

Roasted chicken thighs can be the juicy, meaty center of many weeknight meals. Add delicata squash, quickly tossed in a maple syrup-butter glaze, along with slices of lemon and sage, and you have a something more unusual, an interplay of flavors that don't generally meet on the same sheet pan. This recipe is a little too fussy to count as a fast weeknight dish, but there is nothing difficult about any of the steps. And it's a fine introduction to delicata squash, if you haven't cooked with them yet. Unlike many other winter squash varieties, they have a thin skin and don't need to be peeled (just cut them in half and remove the seeds), making them as easy to prepare as they are sweet.

Steps:

  • Trim ends off delicata squash. Slice in half lengthwise and scrape out the seeds. Discard ends and seeds, but leave the skin on. Place the squash cut-sides down on a cutting board and cut into thin slices.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add squash, onion, and apple; season with salt and pepper. Cook, tossing occasionally, for 3 minutes. Cover, reduce heat, and cook until squash is tender, about 5 more minutes, tossing occasionally.
  • While the squash is cooking, combine chicken, bell pepper, juice from the lemon wedge, garlic, mustard, maple syrup, remaining 1/2 tablespoon olive oil, sage, thyme, 1/8 teaspoon salt, and 1/8 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl. Stir until well combined and chicken is coated.
  • Add chicken mixture to the skillet. Add cashews and toss to combine. Cook until chicken is heated through, about 1 minute.
