The way this recipe is written confuses me, so I'm going to first try to reorganize it to make it more 'me' friendly.
1 small butternut squash (2-3lbs), peeled and diced
2 Tbsps green onions, minced
about 3 Tbsps olive oil
salt pepper, for taste
1/4 cup fresh sage, minced & save 4 whole sage leaves
2 Tbsps pumpkin seeds, toasted
1 lb pasta
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
- Toss the squash, green onions, a drizzle of oil (about 1 Tbsp), salt & pepper along with the minced sage.
- Spread the seasoned squash on a large baking sheet and put in the oven for 40 minutes or until soft. Remove from the oven and set aside.
- Put a large pot of salted water on to boil and cook the pasta.
- While the pasta is cooking, toast the pumpkin seeds in a large skillet (you'll be using it again) on medium-high heat until they start to pop and slightly brown. Remove and set aside.
- Once the pasta is cooked, drain and reheat the same large skillet on medium-high heat. Add 2 Tbsps of oil and once oil is heated add the remaining whole sage leaves to crisp - this takes about 30 seconds. Remove sage from the pan.
- Divide all the ingredients into two batches and cook in the hot oil, stirring frequently, until the pasta starts to crisp, about 4 minutes. Add the pumpkin seeds and cook an additional minute. Combine the two batches in a large bowl and serve.
