Parmesan Roasted Butternut Squash Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F with rack in middle.
• Toss squash with cream, sage, 1 teaspoon salt, and ¼ teaspoon pepper in a 2-quart shallow baking dish. Bake, covered, 30 minutes.
• Stir in half of cheese and sprinkle remainder on top. Roast, uncovered, until squash is tender and beginning to brown, about 20 minutes. Let stand about 5 minutes before serving (cream will thicken).
• Cooks note: Butternut squash can be cut 1 day ahead and chilled in sealable bags. If you're making this entire menu, squash can be roasted at same time as mushroom and farro pie. Use upper and lower thirds of oven, switching position halfway through.

Steps:

• In a medium pot, bring chicken stock to a simmer over medium heat. Add frozen cooked squash and cook together until squash is warmed through and loose. Stir in thyme, salt and pepper and cheese and cook over low heat to combine flavors, serve.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Place the squash on a sheet pan and drizzle with the olive oil, salt, and pepper and toss well. Arrange the squash in one layer and roast for 25 to 30 minutes, until the squash is tender, turning once with a metal spatula.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375°F. Spray 13x9-inch (3-quart) glass baking dish with cooking spray. Peel, halve lengthwise and seed squash; cut into 1/2-inch-thick slices. Arrange with slices overlapping slightly in bottom of baking dish.
• In 2-quart saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Reduce heat to low. Add garlic; cook 2 to 3 minutes, stirring frequently, until garlic is soft and butter is infused with garlic flavor. Do not let butter brown.
• In small bowl, mix bread crumbs, cheese and 1 tablespoon of the butter-garlic mixture.
• Brush squash slices with remaining butter-garlic mixture. Sprinkle with salt, pepper and bread crumb mixture.
• Bake uncovered 30 to 40 minutes or until squash is tender when pierced with fork. Increase oven temperature to 425°F; bake 5 to 10 minutes longer or until lightly browned. Before serving, sprinkle parsley over top.

Steps:

• Place a rack in middle of oven; preheat to 300°F. Prick squash all over with the point of a sharp paring knife and arrange on a foil-lined rimmed baking sheet. Roast until very tender (knife should slide easily through the flesh), about 3 hours. Tear or cut squash in half and let sit until cool enough to handle.
• Remove seeds from squash; discard. Scoop flesh into a medium bowl. Tear skin into 6 large (about 4x4") pieces and set aside on same baking sheet to be refilled later; discard any excess skin. Add grated Parmesan, butter, and lemon zest to bowl with flesh and mash together to combine; season with salt and pepper.
• Carefully move rack to upper third of oven and increase oven temperature to 450°F. Divide mashed squash mixture among reserved pieces of skin and roast until top of flesh is beginning to brown, 10-12 minutes.
• While the squash is roasting, whisk lemon juice, vinegar, oil, and honey in a large bowl. Add scallions, grains, pumpkin seeds, and raisins to dressing and toss to coat.
• Arrange squash on a platter and spoon grain mixture and dressing over. Top with shaved Parmesan.
• Do Ahead
• Whole squash can be roasted 4 days ahead. Keep intact and chill.

Steps:

• Carefully cut squash in half using a heavy blade chef?s knife. Scrape out the seeds using a spoon.
• Rub the cut surfaces of the squash with the extra virgin olive oil.
• Place onto a cookie sheet cut side up and roast in a 350 convection oven (or 375 conventional oven) for about 30 to 40 minutes or until the squash is easily pierced with a skewer.
• Remove from the oven and let cool slightly at room temperature.
• As soon as you can safely handle the squash without burning your hands, scoop out the flesh into a mixing bowl, being sure to remove any burnt bits or pieces of skin.
• Place flesh back onto cookie sheet and put back into oven, just until hot (about 3-5 minutes).
• Place hot squash in a mixing bowl, add remaining ingredients and mash with a potato masher or a fork to desired consistency. If you like it a little smoother, pass the squash through a food mill before mixing in remaining ingredients.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400°F. In a salad bowl, toss the butternut squash cubes with the garlic, melted butter, salt, pepper, and parsley leaves. Transfer the butternut squash on a baking sheet. Spread out in an even and single layer (no overlap), and roast for about 40 minutes or until the surface becomes light brown and the flesh is tender and soft. Turn off the heat, remove from oven and sprinkle the Parmesan cheese on top of the squash. Put it back into the oven for 5 minutes until the cheese melted. Serve immediately.
