Ingredients

1 large butternut squash (about 3 pounds)

1/4 cup olive oil   

1 tablespoon gochujang (Korean red chile paste)

Kosher salt   

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
  2. Trim both ends off the squash. Remove the skin using a vegetable peeler. Cut the squash in half lengthwise, then scoop the seeds out with a large spoon. Cut the squash into cubes, about 1 inch thick. 
  3. Combine the olive oil, gochujang, and 1 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl. Add the squash and toss to coat evenly. Spread the squash in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet. Roast until the squash is lightly browned and tender, about 40 minutes, turning once with a metal spatula.
