Step-by-Step Method
Preheat the oven
Heat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a sheet pan with parchment paper or lightly oil it.
Prep the squash
Peel the butternut squash, scoop out the seeds, and cut it into evenly sized pieces so it roasts at the same pace.
Mix the orange-garlic dressing
In a bowl, stir together olive oil, orange juice, a pinch of orange zest, and minced garlic. Add salt and pepper if you like.
Coat the squash
Spread the squash on the pan, then drizzle the orange mixture over it. Toss gently so the pieces are well coated.
Roast until tender
Roast for 40–45 minutes, until the squash is tender and lightly browned at the edges. Give it a quick toss halfway through for even color.
Finish and serve
Let it sit for 2 minutes, then sprinkle with chopped parsley. Serve warm or at room temperature.
