Crispy Parmesan Roasted Squash is a simple and delicious side dish featuring thinly sliced yellow or zucchini squash baked to golden perfection with olive oil, salt, pepper, and a generous sprinkle of Parmesan cheese. This quick recipe yields a crunchy, savory snack or complement for any meal.

Ingredients

Scale

Squash

  • 2 medium squash (yellow or zucchini), thinly sliced

Seasonings and Toppings

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Salt to taste
  • Black pepper to taste
  • 1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions

  1. Prep the Oven: Heat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly grease it to prevent the squash from sticking during baking.
  2. Arrange the Squash: Lay the thinly sliced squash in a single layer on your prepared baking sheet, ensuring slices do not overlap to allow even crisping.
  3. Season and Top: Drizzle olive oil evenly over all the squash slices. Season generously with salt and black pepper, then sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the top of each slice.
  4. Bake Until Golden: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for about 15 minutes, or until edges are crispy and the Parmesan cheese has turned a golden brown. Watch carefully to prevent burning.
  5. Serve Hot: Remove from the oven and serve immediately while the squash is warm and at its crispiest for the best texture and flavor.

Notes

  • Use thin slices of squash for optimal crispiness.
  • Keep an eye on the squash while baking to avoid burnt cheese.
  • Different types of squash like zucchini or yellow squash both work well.
  • This dish is best served immediately after baking to maintain crispiness.
  • For extra flavor, add herbs such as thyme or rosemary before baking.
