Recipe information

  • Total Time

    1 1/2 hr

  • Yield

    Makes 8 to 10 servings

Ingredients

2 lb green beans (preferably haricots verts), trimmed
4 lb butternut squash, halved lengthwise, seeded, and diagonally cut crosswise into 1 1/2-inch-thick triangular pieces
3 tablespoons olive oil
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 stick (1/2 cup) plus 1 tablespoon unsalted butter, stick cut into tablespoon pieces and other tablespoon melted
1 1/2 tablespoons Sherry vinegar
1 1/2 tablespoons soy sauce

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 425°F.

    Step 2

    Cook beans in 2 batches in a 4-quart saucepan of boiling salted water until just tender, 3 to 4 minutes, transferring with a slotted spoon to a bowl of ice and cold water to stop cooking. When cool, drain beans and pat dry.

    Step 3

    Toss squash with oil, salt, and pepper in a large bowl, then roast in a large shallow baking pan (1 inch deep) in middle of oven, turning occasionally, until golden brown and tender, about 40 minutes.

    Step 4

    While squash is roasting, melt 1 stick butter with vinegar and soy sauce over moderately low heat, whisking until emulsified, about 4 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

    Step 5

    Reduce oven temperature to 350°F.

    Step 6

    Push roasted squash to 1 side of roasting pan and add beans to other side. Drizzle beans with tablespoon melted butter and heat in middle of oven, uncovered, stirring occasionally, about 20 minutes.

    Step 7

    Transfer roasted vegetables to a dish. Just before serving, drizzle with Sherry soy butter and gently toss.
