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

Ingredients

Scale
  • 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!
