This roasted butternut squash is tossed with olive oil and flavored with garlic and parsley. It's perfectly tender with crispy caramelized edges ... need we say more?
Preheat the oven to 475°F. Trim off the top and bottom of the butternut squash and peel the skin. Cut the squash in half lengthwise and spoon out the seeds.
Lay the butternut squash on a cutting board so the flat side is down. Cut it into 1/4-1/2 inch thick slices.
Transfer the butternut squash slices to a lined large baking sheet and toss them with the olive oil and garlic parsley salt.
Spread the butternut squash slices into an even layer — do not overcrowd them. You may need to use two baking sheets.
Bake the squash for 10 minutes. Flip the pieces over, then bake for an additional 5 minutes, or until the squash is fork-tender and the edges have browned. Sprinkle fresh herbs and any other garnishes of choice over the roasted squash. Serve hot and enjoy!
