Mexican Roasted Delicata Squash Bowls Recipes

ROASTED DELICATA SQUASH

Steps:

• Place squash halves cut side down on a cutting board. Slice into 3/8-inch slices. Transfer slices to a bowl. Drizzle with olive oil; add salt and cayenne pepper. Toss to coat squash with oil.
• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
• Arrange squash pieces in a single layer on prepared baking sheet. Place in preheated oven until bottom of slices is browned and squash is tender, 12 to 18 minutes.

ROASTED DELICATA SQUASH WITH CHILIES, LIME & CILANTRO

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400ºF. Rub a small amount of olive oil over a rimmed sheet pan. Throw the squash slices onto the sheet pan, drizzle with the 3 tablespoons of olive oil, and season generously with salt - squash can handle it. (For a full sheet pan, I use 2 teaspoons of kosher salt.) Arrange the slices into a single layer. Place pan in the oven on the middle rack and cook for 15 minutes. Pick one up to check. Continue roasting until the undersides of the squash slices are evenly browned, then stick the pan under the broiler for 3 to 4 minutes or until the top is evenly golden-keep an eye on it the entire time. Remove pan from the oven and set aside.
• Meanwhile, place the sliced shallot and jalapeño in a small bowl. Juice half of the lime over top. Season with a pinch of salt. Let it macerate while the squash roasts.
• Arrange the squash slices on a platter. Scatter the macerated shallots and jalapeño over top. Scatter the cilantro over top. Serve with more lime wedges on the side.
