Garlic Roasted Summer Squash Recipe

Garlic Roasted Summer Squash Recipe

  • 2 summer squash
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced, or more to taste
  • 1 teaspoon herbes de Provence
  • salt to taste
  • ground black pepper to taste
  1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
  2. Trim the ends from the squash, and cut each squash in half lengthwise. Cut the halves in half again crosswise, to make 4 pieces; cut those pieces in half twice more the long way, to make 16 short spears from each squash. Toss the squash with olive oil and garlic in a bowl; place into a shallow baking dish. Sprinkle with salt and black pepper.
  3. Roast the squash until the spears and garlic start to brown, 5 to 10 minutes. Check the squash after 5 minutes, and add time in 2- to 3-minute intervals to avoid burning.
