How to Make Three Sisters Stew
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Cut one medium butternut squash (about 2 lbs) in half lengthwise. Remove seeds and fibers.
- Place squash halves, cut-side up, in a foil-lined shallow baking pan. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
- Bake for 40-50 minutes, or until easily pierced with a knife but still firm.
- Once cool enough to handle, scoop out the flesh and cut into 1-inch cubes. Set aside.
- Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large soup pot or Dutch oven over medium-low heat.
- Add 1 medium onion, chopped, and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes.
- Add 2 cloves garlic, minced, and sauté for another minute until fragrant.
- Add 1 (15-ounce) can of corn, drained; 1 (15-ounce) can of kidney beans, rinsed and drained; 1 cup vegetable broth; 1 teaspoon dried sage; 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme; 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional); and the roasted butternut squash to the pot.
- Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 20-25 minutes, or until vegetables are tender.
- Season generously with salt and pepper to taste.
- If time allows, let the stew stand for 1-2 hours before serving to allow flavors to meld. Reheat gently if needed.
- Just before serving, stir in 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro.
- Adjust consistency with additional vegetable broth if needed. The stew should be thick and moist, not soupy.
- Serve in warm bowls, garnished with extra cilantro if desired.
