Ingredients

The following ingredients have 5 Servings
  • 1 3/4 lbs. Butternut squash, peeled, seeded, and diced into 1-inch cubes (or 1/2 inch cubes for faster cooking)
  • 2 Tbsp. Butter
  • 1/2 cup Water
  • 1 Tbsp Brown sugar (optional)
  • Salt & pepper, to taste

Instruction

  • Melt butter in a large skillet or sauté pan over medium heat.
  • Continue cooking, stirring regularly, until butter has browned and smells nutty/caramel-y, about 4 minutes
  • Carefully add squash cubes to the pan (careful of splatters!) and stir to coat with the browned butter. Saute squash over medium 10-12 minutes, until the squash is starting to brown, and soften.
  • Add brown sugar (if using) and 1/2 cup water and cook an additional 10-12 minutes, or until water has cooked off and the squash is caramelized and tender.
  • Sprinkle with salt and pepper, to taste.
