Roasted Delicata Squash with Hot Honey

Roasted Delicata Squash with Hot Honey

While I rarely cook with winter squash, I do make an exception for delicata squash because its flavor is milder and I don’t have to peel it! If you haven’t tried hot honey before, it’s amazing on roasted vegetables and meats of all kinds.

Ingredients

Hot Honey

  • ¼ cup honey
  • 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • ½ teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1 delicata squash
  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, or to taste
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt

Directions

Step 1
Combine honey, vinegar, red pepper flakes, thyme, smoked paprika, and salt in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil. Remove from heat and let cool to room temperature so flavors infuse, about 30 minutes.

Step 2
Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 3
Scrub delicata squash and pat dry. Cut into 1/2-inch rings. Scoop out seeds from the center of each ring. Toss rings with olive oil and arrange on the baking sheet. Season with 1/2 teaspoon salt.

Step 4
Roast in the preheated oven, flipping halfway through, until golden brown, about 30 minutes. Drizzle hot honey over squash.
