Skillet Oven Roasted Butternut Squash
Hi Everyone, I love butternut squash and it can be prepared in so many ways. This Skillet Oven Roasted Butternut Squash makes use of a mandolin slicer, cutting the butternut squash into 1/4 inch slices. You can certainly use a sharp chef’s knife to slice the butternut squash into slices. If you use a mandolin slicer, watch your fingers. I usually slice most of the squash with the mandolin slicer and the last part, I will use the knife.
I used dried sage leaves and thyme that I grew from my garden this year. You can use fresh herbs as well. This Skillet Oven Roasted Butternut Squash recipe is one of my “garden-inspired” recipes, you can see all of the garden-inspired recipes, here.
