Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400ºF.
  2. Cut the top and bottom off of each acorn squash, cut in half length-wise and scoop out the seeds. Slice the acorn squash into 1/2″ slices.
  3. In a large bowl, combine the acorn squash with the rest of the ingredients and toss to coat.
  4. Transfer to a large sheet pan lined with parchment paper, making sure to arrange the squash in a single layer and not over-crowd the pan.
  5. Roast at 400ºF for 25-30 minutes, flipping the acorn squash halfway through for even cooking.
  6. Best served immediately.

Notes

* Pork Panko Substitute: You could also use compliant pork rinds - crush to a powder

Leftovers: Store in an air-tight container in the fridge for a day or two.

Reheating: Just pop them back in the oven for a few minutes to warm through and crisp up again.
