How to Make Golden-Crusted Herbed Delicata Rounds

1. Prep and Roast

Preheat Prep: Adjust your oven rack to the lowest position and preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Toss to Coat: In a large bowl, toss the sliced delicata squash with vegetable oil and salt until each piece is evenly coated. Initial Roast: Arrange the squash on a rimmed baking sheet in a single layer. Cover the sheet tightly with aluminum foil and bake until the squash is tender when pierced with the tip of a paring knife, about 18 to 20 minutes.

2. Develop the Crust

Brown the Bottom: Remove the foil and continue baking until the sides of the squash touching the baking sheet turn a golden brown, approximately 8 to 11 minutes more. Flip and Butter: Take the baking sheet out of the oven, and with a thin metal spatula, carefully flip each squash round. Scatter the pieces of butter over the squash. Final Roast: Return the baking sheet to the oven and bake until the newly flipped side is golden brown, another 8 to 11 minutes.

3. Garnish and Serve

Garnish with Parsley: Transfer the roasted delicata squash to a serving platter and sprinkle with minced fresh parsley. Serve immediately to enjoy the full symphony of flavors.
