Ingredients
- 1 large pumpkin or winter squash, such as butternut or acorn unpeeled
- 1 to 1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
- cracked black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 prigs rosemary, leaves only (1 to 2 tablespoons)
- 1/4 cup toasted and roughly chopped pine nuts
- 1/4 cup Parmigiano-Reggiano finely grated
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400ºF (200°C).
- Cut the pumpkin or squash into wedges about 1 1/2 inches thick. Line the wedges on a baking sheet or a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Position the wedges so they stand upright, peel side down.
- Season the pumpkin or squash evenly with the salt, pepper, and olive oil. Dab the butter in little bits over the the pumpkin and sprinkle with the rosemary.
- Roast, uncovered, until the pumpkin or squash is tender and caramelized around the edges, 45 to 60 minutes. The thicker the wedges, the longer the centers will take to soften, so start checking after 45 minutes.
- Transfer the roasted pumpkin or squash to a serving dish and immediately top with the pine nuts and Parmigiano-Reggiano.
