Servings: 4
Ingredients
- Pumpkin
- 1 medium, peeled and diced
- Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons
- Parmesan cheese
- 1/2 cup, grated
- Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon
- Dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon
- Salt
- 1/2 teaspoon
- Black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon
- Fresh parsley
- for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the diced pumpkin, olive oil, grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper. Toss the ingredients together until the pumpkin pieces are well-coated.
- Spread the coated pumpkin in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper for easy cleanup. Make sure the pieces are not overcrowded to ensure even roasting.
- Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the pumpkin is tender and golden brown. Stir the pumpkin once halfway through the cooking time to promote uniform browning.
- Once roasted, remove from the oven and let cool slightly. For an extra touch, garnish with additional grated Parmesan and fresh parsley before serving.
