Spice Roasted Delicata Squash with Port Reduction has a lot of great flavors. It has tender delicata squash that has been roasted with cinnamon and nutmeg and a sweet and sour port reduction that has been drizzled on top. This side dish is simple and classy, and it only needs 4 ingredients.

Ingredients: 2 delicata squash, halved and seeded. 2 tbsp olive oil. 1 tsp ground cinnamon. 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg. 1/2 cup port wine.

Instructions: Turn on the oven and heat it up to 400F 200C. Cut the delicata squash in half lengthwise and widthwise into half-moons that are 1/2 inch thick. Add the delicata squash slices to a large bowl. Add the olive oil, ground cinnamon, and ground nutmeg. Toss the squash slices until they are well covered. Place the squash slices on a baking sheet that has been lined with parchment paper so that they fall flat. Place the squash in an oven that has already been heated. Roast it for 20 to 25 minutes, or until it is soft and the edges have turned caramelized. While that is going on, heat the port wine in a small saucepan over medium-low. It will take about 10 to 15 minutes of cooking until the port is reduced by half and slightly thickened. After the squash is done roasting, put it on a serving platter and drizzle the port reduction over it. As a fancy and tasty side dish, serve the Spice Roasted Delicata Squash with Port Reduction. Have fun! This dish is great for holidays or special events because it adds a bit of sweetness and spice to your keto meal.
