For a richer flavor, try using brown butter instead of melted butter. Add a pinch of red pepper flakes for a hint of spice. Toasted pecans or walnuts can be substituted for pumpkin seeds. This dish can be made ahead of time and reheated. Add a splash of broth or water when reheating to prevent it from drying out.
