Ingredients

  • 1 kuri squash halved and seeded
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 sprig fresh rosemary (about 1 tablespoons' worth of rosemary)
  • Dash red chile pepper flakes

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Cut the squash in half and seed it. Then slice the squash into thin wedges. Place the wedges in a large bowl.

  2. Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, heat the honey and the balsamic vinegar over medium heat. Continue cooking until it bubbles and reduces down to a slightly thicker syrup (about five minutes). Pour the honey/balsamic mixture and the olive oil over the squash. Add rosemary and chile pepper flakes and stir well to combine.

  3. Prepare a long baking sheet by covering it with foil, then place a baking rack or cooling rack on top. Arrange the squash slices on the baking rack over the foil. Bake for about 1 hour, or until slices are tender. Serve while still warm.
