Ingredients
- 1 lb (500g) butternut squash peeled and cut into small chunks
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 4 tbsp butter melted
- 1 pinch salt
- 3 dashes black pepper
- 1/4 cup parsley leaves finely chopped
- 1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (207°C).
- Peel the butternut squash with a peeler, then use a spoon to scrape out the pulp and seeds. Cut the squash into cubes and small chunks.
- In a salad bowl, toss the butternut squash cubes with the garlic, melted butter, salt, pepper, and parsley leaves.
- Transfer the butternut squash to a baking sheet. Spread it out in an even, single layer (without overlap), and roast for about 40 minutes, or until the surface is light brown and the flesh is tender and soft.
- Turn off the heat, remove the baking sheet from the oven, and sprinkle Parmesan cheese on top of the squash. Return it to the oven for 5 minutes to melt the cheese. Serve immediately.
