Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 medium-sized (about 2-3 lbs) pumpkin
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon, chopped fresh rosemary
- 1 tablespoon, chopped fresh thyme
- 3 minced garlic cloves
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoon, freshly ground black pepper
- 0.25 cup, grated parmesan cheese (optional)
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Wash the pumpkin thoroughly, cut it in half, and remove the seeds and stringy pulp using a spoon. (Save the seeds for roasting if desired.)
Cut the pumpkin into 1-inch cubes, leaving the skin on if edible (most varieties like sugar pumpkins have edible skin).
In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, chopped rosemary, chopped thyme, minced garlic, sea salt, and black pepper.
Add the pumpkin cubes to the herb-oil mixture and toss well to evenly coat all pieces.
Spread the seasoned pumpkin in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring the pieces do not overlap for even roasting.
Roast the pumpkin in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, flipping the pieces halfway through, until the edges are golden and the pumpkin is fork-tender.
Optional: During the last 5 minutes of roasting, sprinkle grated parmesan cheese over the pumpkin for a savory touch.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly. Serve warm as a delicious side dish.
