Spicy Chipotle Orange Squash Crockpot Recipe

Spicy Chipotle Orange Squash Crockpot Recipe



Ingredients needed:

* 1 small buttercup or acorn squash (2 to 2 1/2 lb.)
* 1/4 cup of water
* 3 tablespoons of packed brown sugar
* 2 tablespoons of butter or margarine, melted
* 1 teaspoon of grated orange peel
* 3 tablespoons of fresh orange juice
* 1/4 teaspoon of salt
* 1 chipotle chile in adobo sauce (from 7 oz. can), finely chopped

Preparation steps:

* Spray crockpot with cooking spray. Cut squash in half crosswise; remove seeds and membranes. Pour water into crockpot. Place squash halves, cut sides up, in crockpot. (If necessary, cut off pointed tip so squash stand upright.)
* In a small bowl, mix remaining ingredients; pour into squash halves.
* Cover; cook on High heat setting for 3 1/2 hours or until squash is tender. Cut cooked squash in half.
