Kabocha Squash Saute

I was at Trader Joe's a couple weeks ago and found this squash called Delicata squash.  It had a label with a recipe on it so I thought I would buy it and try it.  The recipe was a hit and I will be making it again, possibly substituting a different squash if I can not find this one!

Delicata Squash Saute

Ingredients:

4 slices chopped bacon
1 1/2 cups onions, chopped
1 delicata squash, deseeded and diced (I peeled but not necessary with this squash)
salt
pepper
1/4 cup chicken stock
6 leaves chopped sage
lemon zest (optional)
balsamic glaze (optional)

Directions:

Render bacon in a large skillet.  Remove bacon, add the onion to the drippings and cook for 2-3 minutes.  Add the diced squash to skillet with salt and pepper and saute for 12 minutes.  Add chicken stock, cover and steam until tender, yet firm, about 5 minutes.  Remove lid stir in bacon and sage.  Remove from heat and dress with lemon zest or a drizzle of balsamic glaze if desired.
