- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 2 green onions, chopped
- 2 pounds kabocha squash, peeled and cubed
- 1 tablespoon dried shrimp
- 2 teaspoons white sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 (14.5 ounce) can chicken broth
- 1 cup water, or as needed
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat; cook and stir green onions until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add kabocha squash, shrimp, sugar, and salt; cook and stir until squash is lightly browned but still tender, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove skillet from heat.
- Bring chicken broth to a boil in a pot; add squash and shrimp. Pour in enough water to cover squash by 1/2 inch. Simmer until squash is tender, 10 to 15 minutes.
