Preheat the oven to 425Β°F (220Β°C).
Wash the delicata squash thoroughly under cool running water to remove any dirt or debris.
Slice off the ends of the squash and cut them in half lengthwise. Use a spoon to scoop out the seeds and stringy pulp from the center of each half.
Cut the squash into 1/2 inch thick half-moon slices.
Place the squash slices in a large mixing bowl. Drizzle with olive oil, ensuring each piece is well coated.
In a small bowl, mix together garlic powder, paprika, ground black pepper, and sea salt.
Sprinkle the spice mixture over the squash slices and toss to ensure even coating of the spices on each piece.
Arrange the slices in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Roast in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, turning once halfway through, until the squash is tender and lightly browned.
Remove from the oven and transfer to a serving dish. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
Serve warm and enjoy your soy-free roasted delicata squash!
