Ingredients
- 2 tbsp butter
- 12 whole shallots or small onion, peeled
- 1 butternut squash
- 6 cups halved Brussels sprouts
- 2 sprigs each fresh thyme
- 2 sprigs each fresh rosemary
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp pepper
Preparation
In large skillet, heat 2 tbsp (25 mL) of the butter over medium-low heat; fry shallots, stirring every 5 minutes, until golden brown, 20 minutes. (Make-ahead: Let cool to room temperature; refrigerate in airtight container for up to 24 hours.)
Meanwhile, peel, seed and cut squash into 1-inch (2.5 cm) cubes. Without stirring, add to shallots. Cover and cook over medium heat for 2 minutes.
In saucepan of boiling salted water, blanch brussels sprouts for 2 minutes. Drain and return to pot. Add squash mixture, thyme, rosemary, salt and pepper. Reduce heat to low; cover and cook until vegetables are tender, about 10 minutes. Gently stir vegetables; transfer to platter.
