Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 pound butternut squash, peeled and diced, or more to taste
¼ cup olive oil, divided
4 ears corn on the cob, husks and silk removed
1 tablespoon olive oil, or as needed
1 small red onion, chopped
¾ cup dried cranberries
lemon, juiced
3 tablespoons chile paste
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon cider vinegar
½ teaspoon paprika
½ bunch cilantro, chopped

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Arrange butternut squash into a single layer onto a baking pan. Drizzle 1 tablespoon olive oil on top. Wrap each ear of corn in aluminum foil.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until squash is tender, about 15 minutes. Continue cooking corn until charred, about 15 minutes more.
  • Cut corn kernels off cob; place in a container with the butternut squash.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add red onion; cook and stir until softened and translucent, about 5 minutes. Add cranberries; cook and stir until soft and slightly plump, 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer onion and cranberries to the squash mixture.
  • Combine the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil, lemon juice, chile paste, garlic powder, vinegar, and paprika in a bowl. Toss with the cranberry-squash mixture. Mix cilantro into the salad.

I used frozen corn instead of fresh corn. The salad was still very good.

I'm not a fan of cilantro, so I omitted it from the recipe. The salad was still delicious.
