Ingredients

  • 1 large butternut squash, halved and seeded

  • salt and ground black pepper to taste

  • 2 cups chicken stock

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Place squash on a baking sheet, flesh-side up.

  2. Roast in the preheated oven until tender and slightly brown, 45 minutes to 1 hour. Cool until easily handled.

  3. Scoop flesh into a food processor; pulse until smooth. Add chicken stock, 1/4 cup at a time, while continuing to pulse, until smooth. Season puree with salt and pepper.

Cook's Note:

Vegetable broth can be used in place of the chicken stock, if desired.
