Beef and Butternut Squash Stew image

Provided by Giada De Laurentiis

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

3 tablespoon olive oil
1 onion, peeled and chopped
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1 tablespoon minced fresh rosemary
1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme
2 pounds stew beef, cut into 2-inch cubes
1/2 teaspoon salt, plus more to taste
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, plus more to taste
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 cup Marsala wine
1 pound butternut squash, trimmed and cut into 2-inch cubes
1/4 cup chopped sun-dried tomatoes
3 to 4 cups beef broth
2 tablespoons fresh chopped flat-leaf parsley
Crusty bread, for serving

Steps:

  • In a large soup pot heat 3 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the onions, garlic, rosemary, and thyme and saute until the onions are tender, about 2 minutes. Toss the beef cubes in salt and pepper and flour. Turn up the heat to med-high and add the beef to the pot. Cook until the beef is browned and golden around the edges, about 5 minutes. Add the Marsala wine. Using a wooden spoon, gently stir up all the brown bits off the bottom of the pan. Add the butternut squash and sun-dried tomatoes and stir to combine. Add enough beef broth to just cover the beef and squash. Bring the stew to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to low and simmer, covered, for 1 hour. Season the stew with additional salt and pepper to taste. Sprinkle with the chopped parsley. Serve with crusty bread alongside.

GREEK STEWED GREEN BEANS AND YELLOW SQUASH WITH TOMATOES



Greek Stewed Green Beans and Yellow Squash With Tomatoes image

Green beans are one of many vegetables that both Greek and Turkish cooks stew with abundant olive oil in dishes known as ladera. This recipe is inspired by one of them, but it's a far cry from the authentic version, which requires three times as much oil and simmers for a longer time. Don't be put off by the faded color of the beans; they're comforting and delicious.

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

Categories     dinner, soups and stews, main course

Time 55m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 large onion, chopped
2 large garlic cloves, minced
1 pound fresh green beans, trimmed
3/4 pound yellow squash (3 medium squash), sliced
1 (14-ounce) can chopped tomatoes, or 1 1/2 cups peeled, chopped tomatoes
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
1/4 cup chopped fresh mint, parsley or dill
1 to 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil in a wide, covered skillet or Dutch oven over medium heat, and add the onion. Cook, stirring, until tender and translucent, five to eight minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, for another minute until fragrant. Stir in the green beans, squash and remaining oil. Stir together for a few minutes, then add the tomatoes and 1/2 cup water. Bring to a simmer, then add salt and freshly ground pepper.
  • Cover and simmer 30 minutes until the beans are tender and the mixture is stew-like. Add the herbs, and simmer for another five to 10 minutes. Add lemon juice if desired. Taste, and adjust seasonings with salt and pepper. Serve hot or at room temperature.

PAN-COOKED SUMMER SQUASH WITH TOMATOES AND BASIL



Pan-Cooked Summer Squash With Tomatoes and Basil image

This Provençal summer dish is delightful as a starter or as a side dish with fish, chicken or cooked grains.

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

Categories     weekday, side dish

Time 15m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 1/2 pounds medium or small zucchini or other summer squash, thinly sliced or diced depending on what shape squash you use
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 pound ripe tomatoes, grated on the large holes of a box grater, or peeled, seeded and diced
Salt
freshly ground pepper
1 to 2 tablespoons chopped or slivered fresh basil (to taste)

Steps:

  • Heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil over medium-high heat in a wide, heavy skillet. Add the zucchini. Cook, stirring or shaking the pan, until the zucchini is lightly seared and beginning to soften, three to five minutes. Remove from the pan, and set aside.
  • Add the remaining olive oil to the pan, then the garlic. Cook, stirring, just until fragrant -- less than 30 seconds. Stir in the tomatoes. Cook, stirring, until the tomatoes have begun to cook down, about five minutes. Return the zucchini to the pan, add salt and pepper to taste, and reduce the heat to medium. Cook, stirring often, until the zucchini is tender and translucent and the tomatoes have cooked down to a fragrant sauce. Stir in the basil, and taste and adjust seasonings. Remove from the heat and serve hot, or allow to cool and serve at room temperature.

It's very comforting, relatively fast, wonderfully flavorful, and helps solve a problem that's existed since neighbors started planting gardens: what to do with all that squash! Serve it with a big slice of crusty bread for dipping into the broth.

CHICKPEA AND BUTTERNUT SQUASH STEW



Chickpea and Butternut Squash Stew image

Cooking your own chickpeas heightens the flavor of this dish. Cooking 3/4 cup of dried beans will yield enough for the stew. If you use canned, be sure to drain and rinse them.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Seasonal Recipes     Fall Recipes     Butternut Squash Recipes

Time 1h20m

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 medium butternut squash, cut into 1 1/2-inch irregularly shaped pieces (about 6 cups)
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Sea salt
Freshly ground black pepper
2 medium onions, chopped (about 2 1/2 cups)
8 large cloves garlic, finely chopped
1/4 cup finely chopped flat-leaf parsley stems
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 teaspoon paprika
3 medium carrots, cut into 3/4-inch cubes or irregular shapes
2 1/2 cups cooked chickpeas (either from dry beans or from two 15-ounce cans)
1 can crushed tomatoes (28 ounces)
4 teaspoons Harissa, or more to taste
1/2 cup flat-leaf parsley leaves, roughly chopped

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Place squash on a baking sheet lined with parchment. Drizzle with 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil and salt and pepper. Toss well and roast until golden brown, 45 to 50 minutes.
  • In a large skillet or pot, warm remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil over medium-high heat. Add onions and a pinch each of salt and pepper. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in garlic and cook for 3 minutes. Stir in parsley stems, cumin, and paprika, and cook for 1 minute. Add carrots and 1 cup chickpea cooking liquid (or water, if using canned chickpeas) to onion mixture. Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to low and simmer, covered, until carrots are tender, 10 to 12 minutes.
  • Add tomatoes and chickpeas. Raise heat to medium-high and simmer for 10 minutes. Stir in harissa paste, chopped parsley leaves, roasted squash, and remaining 1/2 cup chickpea cooking liquid (or water). Simmer, uncovered, until flavors meld, another 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Tips:

  • Use ripe, in-season vegetables. This will ensure the best flavor and texture in your stew.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different spices and herbs. A little bit of cumin, chili powder, or oregano can add a lot of flavor to the dish.
  • Don't overcrowd the pot. If you try to cook too many vegetables at once, they will not cook evenly and the stew will be watery.
  • Simmer the stew for at least 30 minutes. This will allow the flavors to meld and develop.
  • Serve the stew with your favorite side dishes. Rice, quinoa, or bread are all great options.

Conclusion:

Squash and tomato stew is a delicious, healthy, and versatile dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It is a great way to use up leftover vegetables and it is also a great option for a quick and easy weeknight meal. With a few simple tips, you can make a squash and tomato stew that is sure to impress your family and friends.
