Butternut Squash and Chorizo Hash

Introduction

Start your day with a flavorful twist with this Butternut Squash and Chorizo Hash, easily prepared on the Arteflame Grill. It's a perfect balance of sweet, spicy, and savory.

Ingredients:

• 1 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil, plus more if needed
• 8 oz. fresh chorizo, casings removed
• 1 lb. butternut squash (about ½ of a medium squash), peeled and cut into ½" pieces (about 4 cups)
• 1 medium onion, coarsely chopped
• Kosher salt, to taste
• Lime wedges, for serving
• Cilantro leaves with tender stems, for garnish

Instructions

1. Cook the Chorizo:

   • Heat the Arteflame grill and coat the side plancha with olive oil.
   • Cook the chorizo, breaking it into small pieces with a wooden spoon, until browned and fully cooked, about 5 minutes.
   • Transfer the chorizo to a bowl using a slotted spoon, leaving the fat on the plancha.

2. Grill the Squash and Onion:

   • Add the butternut squash and onion to the plancha. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally and adding more oil if needed, until the vegetables are golden brown and tender, about 10–15 minutes.
   • Transfer the cooked squash and onion to the bowl with the chorizo and stir to combine.
   • Season the hash with kosher salt. Squeeze a lime wedge over the hash and add cilantro for garnish.

3. Serve:

   • Serve the butternut squash and chorizo hash hot, with additional lime wedges for squeezing over.
