One of the best things about the fall and winter seasons is enjoying the variety of fresh vegetables and fruits available. Simple Sautéed Butternut Squash is a delicious side dish.
– Butternut squash – Olive oil – Salt and pepper – Garlic powder – Dried thyme
First, prepare the butternut squash by cutting and peeling, then cut it into bite-sized pieces. These will be about ½ inch cubes.
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the butternut squash and stir. Then season with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and dried thyme. Sauté for about 12-15 minutes.
Once the squash is fork-tender and lightly browned on the outside, it is ready! Serve with roasted chicken or ham.
