Summer Yellow Squash Roasted In Lemon Olive Oil Recipes

MEDITERRANEAN SAUTEED YELLOW SQUASH RECIPE

Steps:

• Heat 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil over medium heat until shimmering but not smoking. Add sweet onions and cook for about 4 minutes until translucent (you can raise heat to medium-hot and toss onions regularly.)
• Add garlic, yellow squash, and red bell peppers. Drizzle a little more extra virgin olive oil.
• Season with salt, pepper, and spice mixture. Toss with a wooden spoon to make sure vegetables are well coated with the spices. Cook on medium-high, stirring occasionally, until squash and peppers are nice and tender (I like my squash to have some carmalized parts, so it helps to raise the heat for a little while.)
• Transfer to a serving platter. Add another drizzle of extra virgin olive oil and a generous pinch of za'atar. If you like, add a sprinkle of crumbled feta cheese, pitted olives, and a handful of chopped fresh herbs like parsley. Enjoy!

ROASTED YELLOW SQUASH

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F.
• Place squash rounds in a large bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper to taste. Toss to coat.
• Arrange squash in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet. Top with Parmesan cheese.
• Roast in the oven for 12-14 minutes, or until squash is tender. Transfer to the broiler for 1-2 more minutes, or until the cheese on top is golden brown. Garnish with fresh herbs, if desired. Serve immediately.

GARLIC ROASTED SUMMER SQUASH

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
• 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.
• 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.
