Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.

I made this last night and the chicken turned out really dry. I think the baking time needs to be reduced. (I thought 1 1/2 hours seemed like a long time.) I'm going to try again but reduce the baking time by half or so, and maybe add some liquid. Also, I threw in some Spanish olives at the last minute and this was a nice touch.
