How to Make Baked Delicata Squash With Lime Butter
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Cut one medium delicata squash in half lengthwise. Use a spoon to remove the seeds and stringy fibers.
- Place the squash halves cut-side down in a glass baking dish. Add 1/4 inch of water to the dish.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the squash is easily pierced with a fork but still holds its shape.
- Remove the squash from the oven and let it cool slightly.
- While the squash is baking, prepare the lime chili butter: In a small bowl, combine 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter (softened), 1 tablespoon of lime juice, 1/2 teaspoon of chili powder, 1/4 teaspoon of salt, and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper.
- Stir until the butter is smooth and well combined.
- Spoon the lime chili butter generously into the cavities of the baked squash halves.
- Serve immediately and enjoy the burst of flavors!
