Mint-Orange Squash

1. 1

   To make it...

2. 2

   Heat oven to 325u00b0F. Brush each squash wedge with about 1 teaspoon olive oil, then sprinkle with about 1/4 teaspoon salt and a pinch of cayenne if using. Place the squash quarters on a baking sheet skin-side down. (Alternatively, arrange on the rack with the turkey.) Roast during the turkey's last 45 minutes in the oven. The squash is done when it is fork-tender. Meanwhile, grate the zest (the orange skin, not the white pith) and squeeze the juice from the orange. Remove the squash from the oven and immediately sprinkle with the mint, orange juice, and zest.
