Roasted Acorn Squash With Jalapeno Recipes

Steps:

• Toss 1 diced seeded acorn squash, 1 sliced shallot, 1 sliced seeded red jalapeno and 4 thyme sprigs with olive oil on a rimmed baking sheet; season with 3/4 teaspoon kosher salt and some pepper. Roast at 425 degrees F, stirring occasionally, until the squash is browned and tender, about 25 minutes.

Steps:

• Put oven racks in upper and lower thirds of oven and preheat oven to 450F. Halve squash lengthwise, then cut off and discard stem ends. Scoop out seeds and cut squash lengthwise into 3/4-inch-wide wedges. Toss squash with black pepper, 3/4 teaspoon salt, and 2 tablespoons oil in a bowl, then arrange, cut sides down, in 2 large shallow baking pans. Roast squash, switching position of pans halfway through roasting, until squash is tender and undersides of wedges are golden brown, 25 to 35 minutes.
• While squash roasts, mince garlic and mash to a paste with remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt. Transfer paste to a small bowl and whisk in lime juice, chile (to taste), cilantro, and remaining 1/4 cup oil until combined. Transfer squash, browned sides up, to a platter and drizzle with vinaigrette.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Cut acorn squash in half. Roast them cut side up on a baking sheet for 50 minutes or until the flesh is just tender. Let the squash cool for 20 minutes.
• In a large skillet over medium heat melt the butter; saute the onions. Stirring occasionally, cook the onions for 10 minutes, or until they begin to brown at the edges. Mix in the garlic, coriander, and nutmeg. Cook the mixture 2 minutes more; then remove the pan from the heat.
• Spoon the seeds and stringy middle out of the squash, and discard these. Spoon out the flesh, chop it and add it to the onion mixture. Discard the skins. Heat and stir the squash-onion mixture, then season it with salt and pepper. Serve the squash hot.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375 degrees. Cut 1/4 inch from stem end and bottom of each squash, and discard. Cut each squash in half crosswise. Discard seeds and membrane.
• Cut each squash half crosswise into 2 slices, each 1-inch thick.
• Combine honey, olive oil, pepper and salt in a large bowl. Add squash, and toss to coat.
• Place squash on an oiled sheet pan. Bake at 375 degrees for 30 minutes or until tender.
