Stuffed Acorn Squash with Creole Rice is a delicious and hearty dish that is perfect for any occasion. This dish is a combination of tender acorn squash, flavorful Creole rice, and a variety of other delicious ingredients that come together to create a truly unforgettable meal.
To make this dish, you will need the following ingredients:
- 2 acorn squash, halved and seeded
- 1 cup of uncooked white rice
- 2 cups of chicken broth
- 1 onion, chopped
- 1 green bell pepper, chopped
- 2 cloves of garlic, minced
- 1 can of diced tomatoes
- 1 tsp of Creole seasoning
- 1/2 tsp of salt
- 1/4 tsp of black pepper
- 1/4 cup of chopped fresh parsley
- 1/4 cup of chopped green onions
- 1/4 cup of grated Parmesan cheese
To begin, preheat your oven to 375 degrees F. Place the acorn squash halves on a baking sheet, cut side down, and bake for 30 minutes. While the squash is baking, prepare the Creole rice. In a large saucepan, combine the rice, chicken broth, onion, bell pepper, garlic, diced tomatoes, Creole seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for 20 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the liquid has been absorbed.
Once the rice is cooked, stir in the parsley, green onions, and Parmesan cheese. Remove the acorn squash from the oven and turn them over so that the cut side is facing up. Spoon the Creole rice mixture into the squash halves, filling them to the top. Return the squash to the oven and bake for an additional 20-25 minutes, or until the squash is tender and the rice is heated through.
This Stuffed Acorn Squash with Creole Rice dish is a perfect combination of savory and sweet flavors. The tender acorn squash pairs perfectly with the flavorful Creole rice, and the Parmesan cheese adds a deliciously cheesy finish. This dish is perfect for a cozy night in or for entertaining guests.
