Winter Pasta with Brown Butter, Squash, and Arugula

Winter Pasta with Brown Butter, Squash, and Arugula
  • 1 cup butternut squash - peeled, seeded, and cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 (16 ounce) package linguine
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup pine nuts
  • 4 cups arugula
  • 1 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon freshly grated Parmesan cheese, or to taste


  1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
  2. Spread squash into a baking sheet. Drizzle olive oil and sprinkle salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper over squash; toss to coat.
  3. Roast in the preheated oven until squash is browned and softened, about 30 minutes. Remove from oven and keep warm.
  4. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil; cook the linguine at a boil until tender yet firm to the bite, 10 to 11 minutes. Drain linguine, reserving 1 cup pasta water.
  5. Melt butter in a pot over medium heat until bubbling and slightly browned, about 5 minutes. Cook and stir garlic and pine nuts in the brown butter until fragrant, 2 minutes. Add linguine, arugula, 1 cup Parmesan cheese, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, and enough pasta water to moisten to the mixture. Toss until Parmesan cheese melts.
  6. Transfer linguine mixture to serving plates and top with roasted squash and 1 tablespoon Parmesan cheese.
