Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 medium-sized Delicata squash
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Wash and slice the delicata squash in half lengthwise. Scoop out the seeds with a spoon and discard them.
Slice the cleaned squash into 1/2-inch thick crescents, leaving the skin on.
In a large bowl, toss the squash slices with olive oil, ensuring all pieces are coated evenly.
Add salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika to the bowl. Mix thoroughly to coat the squash slices with the seasoning.
Spread the squash slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, making sure they do not overlap.
Roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, turning halfway through, until the squash is golden brown and tender.
Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly.
Serve warm, garnished with fresh parsley for an added burst of flavor.
