Ingredients
  

  • 2 pounds Zucchini quartered lengthwise and cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 2 tablespoons Olive oil
  • 4 cloves Garlic minced, or 1 1/4-teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt to taste, freshly ground black pepper

Equipment

  • Baking Sheet

Method
 

  1. Adjust an oven rack to the middle position and preheat your oven to 450 degrees.
  2. In a large bowl, add the zucchini, olive oil, garlic, and season with salt and pepper. Toss until everything is evenly coated.
  3. Transfer the mixture to a rimmed baking sheet and spread it into an even layer.
  4. Roast the zucchini in the oven until tender-crisp and browning around the edges, about 35 to 40 minutes.

Notes

  • Zucchini: Any summer squash, including yellow summer squash or pattypan, also works. Slice any or a mix of these tender squash varieties into 1-inch pieces and you’re good to go.
  • Yield: This recipe makes about 8 cups of roasted zucchini, enough for eight 1-cup side dish servings.
  • Storage: Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Add extra roasted zucchini to omelets, scrambled eggs, and your meal prep containers.
