Makes 6 (1-cup) servings.

Prep Time: 15 minutes

Cook Time: 30 minutes

INGREDIENTS

2 tablespoons butter

3/4 cup chopped onion

1 butternut squash (about 2 pounds), peeled, halved, seeded and cut into 1-inch chunks

1 medium Granny Smith apple, peeled, cored and cut into 1-inch chunks

1 can (14 ounces) reduced sodium chicken broth

1/3 cup orange juice

2 teaspoons McCormick® Cinnamon, Ground

1 teaspoon McCormick® Ginger, Ground

1 cup fat free half-and-half

6 tablespoons reduced fat sour cream

1/4 cup toasted chopped pecans

DIRECTIONS

1. Melt butter in large saucepan on medium heat. Add onion; cook and stir 3 minutes or until slightly softened. Add squash and apple; cook and stir 1 minute.

2. Stir in chicken broth, orange juice, cinnamon and ginger. Bring to boil. Reduce heat to low; cover and simmer 25 minutes or until squash is tender, stirring occasionally. Cool slightly.
