4 cups low-sodium chicken broth

2 tablespoons olive oil

Salt and pepper to taste

Cooking instruction summary:

Procedures 1 Adjust oven rack to middle position and preheat the oven to 425°F. Arrange the squash, onion, and chicken on a large baking sheet in a single layer. Drizzle with the olive oil, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat and roast until the chicken is cooked through and squash is tender, about 30 minutes. 2 Transfer chicken to a plate to cool enough to handle, then pull the meat from the thighs, discarding the bones and skin. Chop into cubes and set aside. 3 In the meantime, combine the squash, onions, and chicken broth in a medium pot. Add the cumin and coriander and bring to a simmer. With a potato masher or wooden spoon, mash up the soup (it will still be somewhat chunky), then add the lemon juice. Add the chicken pieces, then season to taste with salt, pepper, and/or lemon juice. Ladle into bowls and top with fresh cilantro as a garnish.

Food Joke

The inmate on death row was scheduled to be put to death by firing squad the follow morning. Throughout the day, the prison guards were being very nice to him. But when they asked him if he wanted something specific for his last meal, he didn't want anything special. When they asked if there was something special he wanted to do, he said nothing. It went on like this all day. Finally when he was put before the firing squad, the guard asked if he wanted a cigarette and a blindfold. "No," the inmate said, "just get it over with." "Well, is there anything that I can do for you before you go?" said the guard. "You didn't even want a special last meal!" The inmate thought. "Actually," he said, "Music is my life. One thing I would really like would be to sing my favorite song, one whole time through, with no interruptions." The guard nodded and told him to go ahead. The inmate started, "One billion bottles of beer on the wall..."
