Whether you’re single or spoken for, this one’s a keeper! We're talking golden, roasted squash, bathed in a creamy sauce. This recipe is great for a romantic date night in, a “Galentine’s Day” meal with the girls, or an elevated weekend dinner for the fam. Any way you slice it, we’re proposing you give it a try.
Topping (optional): fresh basil
- Preheat oven to 450° F. Line Sheet Pan with Sheet Pan Liner.
- Cut stems off butternut squash. Cut the bulb from the neck, then halve the necks lengthwise and slice into four, 1" thick steaks.
- Peel skin from the squash steaks. Set the bulbs and trimmings aside for another use (see: Recipe tip).
- Score the top of each steak ⅛" deep in a crosshatch pattern, then arrange on pan, scored side up. Brush top and sides with oil. Season with salt and pepper. Roast until tender, about 30 min.
- During the last 5 min of roasting, make sauce. In Sauté Pan, whisk seasoning with cream and water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low. Cover; simmer 5 min, or until thickened.
- Nestle squash into the sauce and top with fresh basil, if desired.
When choosing your butternut squash, find the ones with the longest necks (you’ll get bigger “steaks”).
