- Total Time20 minutes
- Yield4 to 6 1x
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 to 6 Yellow Squash sliced into 1/2 inch discs
- 1/2 white onion, sliced thin
- 1 Tablespoon bacon grease or butter – I use grass fed Ghee butter.
- 1/2 cup water
- salt, pepper and optional but colorful crushed red pepper (only a teaspoon or two) to taste.
Instructions
- Place squash and onion in a skillet or small dutch oven, whichever one you have that has a lid.
- Add bacon grease or butter and about 1/2 cup of water, bring to a simmer over medium-high heat.
- Reduce heat to medium and cover and check to see if you might need to add another 1/4 cup water to keep the squash from sticking to the pan.
- Cook ten minutes longer or until squash is fork tender and onions are translucent.
- Add crushed red pepper. Strain out of the pan and salt and pepper to taste. Serve warm.
