- Ensure the squash is evenly sliced so that it cooks uniformly.
- Use a medium heat setting to prevent the butter from burning and to allow the onions to caramelize properly.
- Stir frequently to ensure all pieces of squash are evenly coated with butter and the onions are evenly distributed.
- For added flavor, consider seasoning with fresh herbs, such as thyme or parsley, or a sprinkle of freshly cracked black pepper.
- If you prefer a bit of crunch, you can add crushed nuts like almonds or walnuts towards the end of the cooking process.
Sautéed yellow squash with onion is a simple yet delicious recipe that celebrates the flavors of fresh vegetables. The buttery coating and caramelized onions add a depth of taste that is both comforting and satisfying. Serve it as a side dish to enhance your meal with its rich and savory notes.
