WILD RICE STUFFED ACORN SQUASH
Steps:
- Heat the oven to 450°F and arrange a rack in the middle. Place squash cut side up on a baking sheet, brush 1 tablespoon of the melted butter over the tops and insides of the squash halves, sprinkle with brown sugar, and season with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Roast in the oven until just fork tender, about 25 to 30 minutes. Meanwhile, place 1 tablespoon of the melted butter in a large frying pan over medium heat. When it foams, add the onion, shallots, and celery, season with salt and freshly ground black pepper, and stir to coat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until just softened, about 6 minutes. Stir in thyme and cook until just fragrant, about 1 minute. Remove from heat and stir in the rice, pecans, cranberries, salt, and pepper. Divide the rice filling among the roasted squash halves (about 1/2 cup for each) and drizzle the remaining tablespoon of butter over top. Continue roasting until the squash is completely fork tender, the edges have started to brown, and the filling is heated through, about 20 to 25 minutes.

[email protected]Overall, this was a good recipe. The wild rice stuffing was flavorful and the acorn squash was roasted perfectly. However, I found the dish to be a bit dry. I think it could have benefited from a sauce or gravy.

[email protected]This recipe was a bit bland for my taste. I think it could have used more seasoning. I also found the acorn squash to be a bit too hard, even after roasting it for the recommended amount of time.
