The easiest way to peel butternut squash is with a vegetable peeler; the harp-shaped variety works particularly well.
Ingredients
-
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
-
1 butternut squash (about 1 ¾ pounds), peeled, seeded, and cut into ¾-inch cubes
-
½ cup low-sodium canned chicken broth
-
¼ cup water
-
1 tablespoon dark-brown sugar
Directions
-
Heat butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat until golden brown. Add squash; saute, stirring occasionally, until golden brown and tender when pierced with a fork, about 16 minutes.
-
Add chicken broth, the water, and brown sugar; cook until liquid has evaporated and squash is nicely caramelized, about 6 minutes. Remove from heat, and season with salt and pepper. Serve.
