Baked Chipotle Butternut Squash Chips With Cilantro And Queso Fresco
- 1 medium butternut squash with a long neck1
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 teaspoons chipotle seasoning
- 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh cilantro leaves
- 4 ounces queso fresco cheese, water strained out
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper. Bring a large pot of water to a boil.
- In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, chipotle seasoning, and cilantro. Set aside.
- Cut off the bulb of the squash, leaving just the neck. Peel the neck and slice thinly, about 1/8 inch or thinner, with a sharp knife or mandolin.
- Boil the squash slices for 2 minutes, then drain and rinse with cool water. Pat the slices dry with a paper towel.
- Assemble the butternut squash slices on the baking sheets so that they do not overlap. Lightly brush each slice with the olive oil, chipotle, and cilantro mixture.
- Bake the chips until the edges start to curl up, about 15 minutes. Sprinkle with queso fresco and continue baking for another 5 minutes, or until edges are brown and crispy. Remove from the oven and serve immediately, sprinkling with additional queso fresco, chipotle seasoning, and cilantro if desired.
