GRILLED DELICATA SQUASH

Delicata squash is actually named for its delicate, edible skin. It's so easy to prepare--just cut open and take out the seeds. Half-inch slices grill up quickly, and the lovely caramelization enhances the flavor.

Time 20m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 large delicata squash
⅓ cup unsalted butter, melted
½ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon
¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
⅓ cup maple syrup
2 tablespoons crumbled feta cheese, or to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
  • Wash and dry each squash and place on a cutting board. With a sharp knife, slice off the stem end and slice each squash in half, lengthwise. Using a spoon, remove the seeds and membranes. Slice across each squash half to create 1/2-inch pieces and place in a mixing bowl.
  • Combine melted butter, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg in a small bowl. Stir to combine, and pour over squash pieces. Stir squash in the butter mixture until coated.
  • Place squash pieces directly on the preheated grill grates and grill 4 to 5 minutes, per side. Move squash away from flare-ups. When grill marks appear and squash is fork-tender, remove from heat and place in a mixing bowl.
  • Pour maple syrup over the squash pieces and stir to coat. Place on a serving dish and garnish with feta cheese crumbles, if desired.

DELICATA SQUASH SALAD WITH KALE AND CRANBERRY BEANS



Delicata Squash Salad With Kale and Cranberry Beans image

From Whole Living. I used peanut oil and light balsamic vinegar. I didn't end up with enough dressing to wilt the kale, so I just stuck it all in the microwave for a couple of minutes. It's also good cold, as it turns out; I had to refrigerate it overnight.
