Ingredients

  • 1 butternut squash-about 3 lb.
  • 2 Tbs. butter or margarine
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 2 tsp. ground ginger

  • Salt and pepper to taste

Directions

Heat oven to 400 degrees. Half the squash and scoop out the seeds and strings. Place it cut side up in a baking pan, adding 1/4 inch of water to the pan. Bake for 35-45 minutes until tender. Cool, then peel and cut into 2 inch chunks. In a large skillet melt the butter and sauté the garlic over low heat for 1 minute. Do not brown, or scorch. Add the squash, toss and cook for 2 minutes. Add the remaining ingredients, and toss to coat. Cook for 2-3 more minutes and serve.

  • Yeah, it said brown rice & chicken stock both were in it. This butternut squash recipe looked like at least worth a three hat rating even without the brown rice or chicken stock. The vegetarian inclined could substitute vegetable broth for the chicken stock
