Ingredients

The following ingredients have 6 Servings
  • ½ medium onion (sliced into wedges)
  • 1 clove garlic (crushed and minced or sliced)
  • 2 teaspoons tomato paste
  • 2 Tablespoons olive oil
  • 4 Tablespoons broth or water
  • 1 ½ pounds pattypan squash (trimmed and left whole)
  • salt & pepper to taste
  • 2 Tablespoons fresh parsley
  • juice from 1 lemon wedge

Instruction

  • Place a large (deep-ish) pan over medium heat (I used a 3-quart cast iron pan). Warm a little oil and add the onions. Sauté until translucent and fragrant, then add the garlic and cook for 1 minute.
  • Add the tomato paste, 2 Tbsp oil, and broth and mix well, then add the squash and season with salt and pepper. Mix again.
  • Cover and reduce heat to low-medium for about 15 minutes. Stir and replace cover, cooking another 10 minutes or until squash is tender. Top with a squeeze of lemon juice and the fresh parsley and serve.
