Serves: 4
 
Ingredients
  • ½ Medium Butternut Squash
  • 1 small Yellow Onion, roughly chopped
  • 2 Tbsp Butter
  • 1 Pkg. Gnocchi (or make your own!)
  • 2 Cloves Garlic, minced
  • ½ tsp Dried Sage
  • ½ tsp Dried Thyme
  • ½ cup Chicken Broth
  • ¼ cup White Wine
  • Salt and Pepper to Taste
  • Optional Garnishes: Jalapeno, Parsley, Toasted Butternut Squash Seeds
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 375F. Scoop the seeds out of the squash and fill the cavity with the chopped onion. Place cavity side up on a baking sheet and roast until soft, 30 mins to 1 hour. Allow to cool.
  2. Once the squash is cool, peel it (close counts) and chop it into bite sized pieces. Reserve onions.
  3. Meanwhile, heat up a large skillet over medium low heat and add the butter and the onions that you roasted with the squash. Without stirring, allow the butter to melt and then to lightly brown.
  4. Add a package of gnocchi. Stirring occasionally, allow the gnocchi to brown on both sides.
  5. Add minced garlic, dried sage and thyme and stir to coat evenly. Add the chicken broth and white wine and cover. Allow the gnocchi to simmer until the liquid is almost gone, about 5 minutes.
  6. Remove the cover and add the diced butternut squash. Stir to coat in the liquid and cook just long enough for the squash to get warm, season to taste and serve. Top with jalapeño, chopped parsley and cooked butternut squash seeds (or pumpkin seeds).
