Roasted Squash Slices With Balsamic And Basil

Recipe Ingredients

1 3/4 lbs	794g / 28oz	Acorn squash
		Salt and freshly ground pepper
1 1/2 tablespoons	22ml	Balsamic vinegar
6		Fresh basil leaves - up to 8
		Olive oil spray

Recipe Instructions

Heat oven to 500with rack in center. Cut squash in half lengthwise; leave skin on. Remove seeds and any stringy bits from center. Cut slices lengthwise 1 1/4" wide. Spray a roasting pan with cooking spray. Arrange squash in pan, not touching. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.

Cook 25 minutes, or until side touching pan begins to brown. Use a spatula to turn slices, sprinkle with salt and pepper. Continue to cook until golden and brown, 10 - 15 minutes more. Right before serving, stack basil leaves in a pile, and cut into thin pieces. Arrange squash slices on a plate, drizzle with vinegar, and scatter basil on top.

NOTES : One squash makes 10 - 12 slices; if you want more, just double the recipe.
