By dette

Just a few minutes and a handful of ingredients are all you’ll need for this scrumptious side dish. Hoisin sauce and rice wine vinegar give grilled pattypans Asian flair.

Ingredients

• Ingredients
• 6 cups pattypan squash (about 1-1/2 pounds)
• 1/4 cup apricot spreadable fruit
• 2 teaspoons hoisin sauce
• 1 teaspoon rice vinegar
• 1/2 teaspoon sesame oil
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/8 teaspoon ground ginger

Preparation

Step 1

Directions
Place squash in a grill wok or basket coated with cooking spray. Grill, covered, over medium heat for 4 minutes on each side or until tender.
Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine the remaining ingredients. Transfer squash to a serving bowl; add sauce and toss gently. Yield: 6 servings.

Editor's Note: If you do not have a grill wok or basket, use a disposable foil pan. Poke holes in the bottom of the pan with a meat fork to allow liquid to drain.
