The easiest way to peel butternut squash is with a vegetable peeler; the harp-shaped variety works particularly well.

Prep: 8 minutes
Total: 35 minutes

Ingredients

Serves 4

• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 1 butternut squash (about 1 3/4 pounds), peeled, seeded, and cut into 3/4-inch cubes
• 1/2 cup low-sodium canned chicken broth
• 1/4 cup water
• 1 tablespoon dark brown-sugar

Directions

1. Heat butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat until golden brown. Add squash; saute, stirring occasionally, until golden brown and tender when pierced with a fork, about 16 minutes.
2. Add chicken broth, the water, and brown sugar; cook until liquid has evaporated and squash is nicely caramelized, about 6 minutes. Remove from heat, and season with salt and pepper. Serve. One more thing... Isn't this cool! It is totally on our Christmas list I emailed it to my mom this morning! we have 2 of them (Halloween and Christmas) on VHS but DVD with ALL of them! Just cool!
