Roasted Delicata Squash with Hot Honey image

While I rarely cook with winter squash, I do make an exception for delicata squash because its flavor is milder and I don't have to peel it! If you haven't tried hot honey before, it's amazing on roasted vegetables and meats of all kinds.

Time 1h

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

¼ cup honey
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 teaspoon dried thyme
½ teaspoon smoked paprika
1 pinch salt
1 delicata squash
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, or to taste
½ teaspoon kosher salt

Steps:

  • Combine honey, vinegar, red pepper flakes, thyme, smoked paprika, and salt in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil. Remove from heat and let cool to room temperature so flavors infuse, about 30 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Scrub delicata squash and pat dry. Cut into 1/2-inch rings. Scoop out seeds from the center of each ring. Toss rings with olive oil and arrange on the baking sheet. Season with 1/2 teaspoon salt.
  • Roast in the preheated oven, flipping halfway through, until golden brown, about 30 minutes. Drizzle hot honey over squash.
