Mmmmm I love chicken tetrazzini!
Pan roasted acorn squash
Cut an acorn squash in half from top to bottom and clean out the seeds and fibers. Take each half and lay it cut-side down on a cutting board. Slice each half into 6 half-moon shaped pieces. Place in a skillet on medium-high with water (eyeball the amount of water, when it evaporates, add more). Cover with a lid and steam for approximately 15 minutes.
Drain off any remaining water, add 1/2 to 1 TBSP butter (depending on how much you like) and 2 TBSP brown sugar. Sprinkle with cinnamon. Reduce heat to low and cover. This will turn into a glaze.
Serves 4.
I have a dessert recipe cause I love me some dessert!
