Ingredients
- 2 medium Delicata squash
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Dried rosemary
- 0.5 teaspoon Dried thyme
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Step 2
Wash the delicata squash thoroughly to remove any dirt. Cut off the ends, then slice the squash in half lengthwise. Use a spoon to scrape out the seeds from each half.
Step 3
Place each half cut-side down on the cutting board and slice into 1/4-inch thick half-moons.
Step 4
In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic powder, black pepper, rosemary, thyme, and paprika. Stir well to mix the spices with the oil.
Step 5
Add the delicata squash slices to the bowl and toss them gently until each piece is evenly coated with the seasoned oil mixture.
Step 6
Arrange the coated squash slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are not overlapping for even roasting.
Step 7
Roast in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes, flipping the slices halfway through, until the squash is tender and lightly caramelized.
Step 8
Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy as a low sodium side dish or a healthy snack!
