Caramelized Winter Squash with Lemon-Rosemary Topping

Caramelized Winter Squash with Lemon-Rosemary Topping |kristinschell.com

Doesn’t this recipe sound ridiculously delicious? The first hint of fall has me reading cookbooks and scouring magazines for new concoctions to whip up in the kitchen. I found this gem in a favorite cookbook called How to Pick A Peach: The Search for Flavor from Farm to Table.

I’ve never posted a recipe I haven’t tried before, but reading this one just makes my mouth water. I know it’ll be a hit. We are big fans of squash—here a few of our faves for you to keep handy:

Roasted Butternut Squash Salad

Summer Squash Frittata

Roasted Vegetable Galette

Who wants to try out the Caramelized Winter Squash recipe with me this weekend? We can compare notes — it’ll almost be like cooking in the kitchen together. I’m going to use butternut squash for ours.

Just a little tip: some grocery stores sell squash pre-cubed, but if you ask someone in the produce section to cut your big-ole squash in two for you, it’ll save you the head ache of finding a knife big enough for the task.

Let me know if you’re in!

Caramelized Winter Squash with Lemon-Rosemary Topping

Savory & sweet caramelized squash with fresh flavors of fall. A perfect side dish for roasted chicken.

  • Author: adapted from How To Pick A Peach
  • Prep Time: 15 mins
  • Cook Time: 10 mins
  • Total Time: 25 mins
  • Yield: 6 1x
Scale

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons pine nuts
  • 2 teaspoons fresh rosemary, minced
  • 2 teaspoons fresh lemon peel, minced
  • 1 – 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 lbs peeled winter squash, cut into 1/2 – inch cubes
  • Salt & pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Toast the pine nuts and set aside.
  2. Combine rosemary, lemon peel, and garlic in a small bowl. Add just enough lemon juice to moisten. Stir to combine. Crush the ingredients together with the back of your spoon to make a little paste.
  3. Heat the olive oil in a large non-stick skillet with a lid. When oil is hot, add the squash. Sprinkle with salt and stir until coated with oil and salt.
  4. Cover with lid and cook, without stirring, for 2 minutes. Remove lid and stir the squash – it should be caramelizing. Cover and continue cooking, checking the squash every couple of minutes to make sure it’s caramelized, not burning! Cook until the squash is just tender, about 5 minutes.
  5. Sprinkle rosemary mixture and the remaining lemon juice over the squash. Toss to coat. Add salt & pepper to taste.
  6. Transfer to a serving dish, top with toasted pine nuts and serve.

Meet Kristin

Welcome! I'm so glad you're here.

I'm on a mission to love my neighbors. I put an ordinary picnic table in my front yard, painted it turquoise and invited neighbors, friends, and even strangers to hang out and do life together at the Turquoise Table®.

I hope you'll join us!

Winter wonderland in #atx 🤷🏻‍♀️❄️🙌🏽
Said goodbye to 2020 and welcomed 2021 in our happ Said goodbye to 2020 and welcomed 2021 in our happy place @ymcarockies We’ve packed it all in— sledding, skating, hiking, vision boards, celebrated our 23rd anniversary, and kicked off the New Year this morning with a 5k. I even found time to sit and stitch by the fire. 

Sure feels like we are making up for lost time and setting our hope for the year ahead. Happy New Year friends!!

No coffee on the porch for me this morning! I’ll No coffee on the porch for me this morning! I’ll stay by the fire. We made the 16 hour trek to start the new year in our happy place. We’ve never been here the week between Christmas and NYE and we’re excited to explore in the snow. ❄️ I’m already laughing at our summer stash of clothes we keep here —cotton leggings, hoodies, and fishing boots. Feel free to laugh with and at me. Also winter friends—give me all your tips.

12 Days of Christmas Day 12: 🌟 The Christmas St 12 Days of Christmas Day 12: 🌟 The Christmas Star

Tomorrow (12/21), just after sunset, the heavens will perform a rare show. Jupiter and Saturn will cross paths in the night’s sky and appear to shine as one bright star. The Bethlehem Star, scientifically called the “great conjunction,” will be visible for the first time in 800 years. 

On this winter solstice, the shortest day of the very longest year, step outside, look up and feast on JOY as heaven and nature sing. ✨

“O Father may that Holy Star
Grow every year more bright,
And send its glorious beams afar
To fill the world with light.”

~ William Cullen  Bryant
