Quicker Baked Potato

Try this method for speeding up the potato baking process (for a better texture than those that you microwave). Pre-heat the oven to 400. Place the potato in boiling water for 10 minutes. Bake for 30 minutes. This will cut the cooking time in half.

3 tablespoon unsalted butter

1 teaspoon chili powder
2 1/2 cup chicken broth
3 lb butternut squash, peeled,
