  • Cut the squash evenly: This will help it cook evenly. Cut the squash in half lengthwise, then scoop out the seeds and pulp. Cut each half into 1-inch thick slices.
  • Toss the squash with oil and seasonings: This will help it caramelize and develop flavor. Use olive oil, melted butter, or coconut oil. Season the squash with salt, pepper, and any other desired spices, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
