Baked Delicata Squash with Lime Butter

Baked Delicata Squash with Lime Butter
  • 2 delicata squash, halved and seeded
  • 3 tablespoons butter, softened
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder, or to taste
  • 1/2 teaspoon lime zest (optional)
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste


  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Place the squash cut side down into a baking dish. Pour water into the dish to about 1/4 inch deep.
  2. Bake in preheated oven until the squash pierces easily with a fork, about 30 minutes.
  3. Meanwhile, blend the butter with the lime juice and chili powder in a small bowl. Mix in the lime zest, if desired. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Spoon the butter mixture into the cooked squash, and serve immediately.
