Ingredients
– 1 butternut squash (peeled, seeds scooped, and cubed)
– Olive oil for drizzling
– Sea salt pinches to taste
– Freshly ground black pepper pinches to taste
– Chopped fresh parsley optional for garnish
Instructions
1-Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper to avoid any mess.
2-Place the cubed butternut squash on the prepared baking sheet for even roasting.
3-Drizzle olive oil over the squash, then add pinches of sea salt and freshly ground black pepper. Toss everything to coat evenly, ensuring each piece gets a bit of that flavorful touch.
4-Spread the squash cubes into a single layer on the baking sheet, leaving space between each one so they crisp up nicely instead of steaming.
5-Roast in the oven for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the squash is tender and has golden brown edges that make it irresistible.
6-Optionally, sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley before serving to add a fresh, herby finish.
