Spiced Summer Squash With Garbanzo Beans And Browned Onions Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350˚. Heat the olive oil in a large Dutch oven over medium heat until it shimmers. Add the chopped onion, carrots, celery and a pinch of salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft, 10 to 12 minutes. (Alternatively, you can work in a non-ovenproof pot and transfer your mixture to a baking dish when it's time to move it to the oven.)
• Add the cayenne, a few turns of pepper and the garlic to the pot and cook another minute, until fragrant. Add the wine and cook until it's reduced by half, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the squash, tomatoes, broth, chickpeas, rosemary and bay leaves; give everything a stir.
• Cover the pot, transfer to the oven and braise until the chickpeas are soft and the squash is tender, about 2 hours. Discard the bay leaves and rosemary sprigs before serving. Top with parsley, serve with bread and enjoy!

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the squash, jalapenos, onions, vinegar, 3/4 teaspoon salt and pepper to taste and stir to combine. Cover and cook until the squash starts to brown, stirring twice during cooking, about 6 minutes.
• Remove the lid and continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until the squash is nicely browned and tender, another 6 minutes. Add the sage and garlic and cook for 1 minute. Season with salt to taste. Stir in the chives, transfer to a bowl or platter and serve.

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a large, heavy skillet over medium heat and add the onion. Cook, stirring often, until tender, 5 to 8 minutes, and add the garlic, summer squash, red pepper, and about 3/4 teaspoon salt. Turn the heat to medium-high and cook, stirring, until the squash is translucent and the red pepper tender, about 10 minutes. Add freshly ground pepper, taste and adjust salt. Stir in the parsley and remove from the heat. Serve as a side dish, or use as a filling for a vegetable tart, gratin, or frittata.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F. Roast squash directly on oven rack until a paring knife poked through skin easily slides through flesh, 50-65 minutes. Let squash cool until you can handle. Trim ends, halve lengthwise, and scoop out seeds. Tear or cut squash into large pieces; discard skin (it will come off easily as you tear).
• Meanwhile, mix yogurt, grated garlic, and 1 Tbsp. lemon juice in a medium bowl; season with salt and pepper.
• Heat 2 Tbsp. oil in a large skillet, preferably cast iron, over medium-high. Cook chickpeas, shaking skillet often, until starting to brown and crisp, about 5 minutes. Add onion and chopped garlic and cook, stirring often, until onion is translucent, about 5 minutes. Sprinkle in vadouvan and cook, stirring, until chickpeas and onion are coated and mixture is fragrant, about 1 minute. Season with salt and pepper and transfer to a medium bowl. Wipe out skillet.
• Heat 2 Tbsp. oil in same skillet over medium-high. Cook squash pieces, cut side down, undisturbed, until browned and caramelized, about 5 minutes. Turn pieces over, remove from heat, and season with salt and pepper. Spoon chickpea mixture over squash, then dollop reserved lemon-garlic yogurt around.
• Toss radishes, herbs, and pomegranate seeds, if using, with remaining 1 Tbsp. lemon juice in a small bowl; drizzle with a splash of oil and season with salt and pepper. Scatter over squash and chickpeas. Finish with a grind or two of pepper.

Steps:

• Sprinkle the squash with 1/2 tsp of salt and set on a large rimmed baking sheet lined with paper towels. Let sit for 15 minutes, then pat dry with the paper towels and cut into 1-inch pieces.
• Heat 1 1/2 tbl oil in a large (12-inch or so) skillet over med-high heat until hot, about 1 1/2 minutes. Add the squash and cook, tossing occasionally, until it browns and begins to soften, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a large plate.
• Reduce the heat to medium, add the remaining oil, onion, and salt; cook, stirring, until onion begins to soften and brown, about 5 minutes. Add the cumin and cinnamon, stirring until they have become fragrant. Add the tomato, garbanzo beans and 1/4 cup water, cook and stir until water is almost completely gone and tomatoes soften, about 5 minutes.
• Add the squash and cook, still stirring, so the squash is tender and picks up the flavor of the spices, about 5 minutes. Stir in half of cilantro and season with salt and pepper to taste. Sprinkle remaining cilantro upon serving.
