Wow! I knocked my own socks off with this one. Following my chilled cucumber salad dish, next on my Michi’s Ladder list was squash – a vegetable I’ve never liked in the past.
I found this sautéed squash recipe on the curiously ravenous blog. I adapted it for the ingredients I had at hand and cooked it up. (click thumbnail on the left for a bigger picture of the result)
Peeling and cutting up the acorn squash was the toughest part. Once that was done it took me 10 minutes cook this delicious dish.
Ingredients:
- one acorn squash
- 1/2 cup water
- 1 packet OXO chicken broth packet(10 calories) – or vegetable stock
- 2 cloves garlic, thinly chopped
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp ground pepper
- extra light olive oil, for frying
I think next time I might add some chopped onions and add only half a packet of OXO chicken broth – or stir-fry with real chicken pieces.
