Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Delicata Squash

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Wash the delicata squash under running water to remove any dirt. Cut the squash in half lengthwise and scoop out the seeds with a spoon. Slice the squash into half-moon shapes, about 1/2 inch thick.

  2. 2

    Season the Squash

    In a large bowl, toss the sliced delicata squash with olive oil, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Roast the Squash

    Spread the seasoned squash on a baking sheet in a single layer. Roast in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until the squash is tender and golden brown, flipping halfway through the cooking time.

  2. 4

    Prepare the Jamon Serrano

    While the squash is roasting, slice the jamon serrano into thin strips. Set aside.

  1. 5

    Combine and Serve

    Once the squash is roasted, remove it from the oven and transfer it to a serving dish. Drizzle the oregano honey over the squash and sprinkle the sliced jamon serrano on top. Serve warm as a delicious side dish or appetizer.
