Provided by Cat Marsha

Time 1h25m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 (1 pound) acorn squash, halved and seeded
3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
8 medium button mushrooms, chopped
1 medium onion, chopped
3 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
2 sprigs fresh thyme, leaves stripped and chopped
½ cup uncooked white rice
1 cup chicken broth
1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 tablespoon panko bread crumbs, or to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Brush cut sides of squash with 1 tablespoon olive oil and place, skin-side up, on a baking sheet.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until tender and lightly browned, about 40 minutes.
  • While squash bakes, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a skillet over medium heat; stir in mushrooms, onion, garlic, and thyme. Cook and stir until soft, about 5 minutes. Add rice; cook and stir until rice is coated, about 1 minute. Pour in chicken broth and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer, stirring occasionally, until rice is tender and liquid has been absorbed, about 15 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in Cheddar cheese.
  • Remove squash from the oven, flip over, and season with salt and pepper. Fill squash with rice mixture, sprinkle with panko, and drizzle with remaining olive oil.
  • Return to the oven and bake until heated through, about 10 minutes. Turn on the broiler and broil until panko is brown and crispy, 2 to 3 minutes.

CHEESY ACORN SQUASH



Cheesy Acorn Squash image

Something a little nutty and savory for your squash instead of drowning it in sugar and more sugar. Although those are tasty and give you a nice sugar buzz, try something new with your squash so you can taste the yumminess!

Provided by Barbara Kavorkian

Categories     Vegetables

Time 55m

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 small acorn squash, halved and seeded.
1 Tbsp butter, melted
1 Tbsp brown sugar
1 Tbsp olive oil
2 Tbsp grated parmesan cheese
1/4 tsp ground cinnamon

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 375. Cut squash in half and scrape out the seeds (set aside for replanting or discard) and place the squash cut side up in 13x9 baking dish. Add 1/2 cup water to dish and cover. Bake 40 minutes or until squash is tender. Mix butter, sugar and oil and spoon over squash. Top with cheese and cinnamon and bake uncovered for an additional 5 minutes.
  • 2. Note: To make squash easier to cut in half, pierce the whole squash in several pieces with a sharp knife. Place on microwave plate and heat on high for 2 minutes. Cook for 2 minutes and cut in half.
