Step 2
Next, grab a lipped baking sheet or a rimmed baking dish.
Rub the cut side of the squash with a teeny bit of cooking oil. Place inside a baking dish or atop rimmed baking sheet and roast face-down for 30-40 minutes, or until tender and easily pierced with a fork. Cooking time will vary a bit depending on the size of your squash, and the once rock-hard exterior of the squash will be visibly softened.
