Roasted Okra

Oven baked okra is my favorite quick & healthy side dish.
Prep Time5 mins
Cook Time15 mins

Ingredients

  • 1 lb fresh or frozen okra if using frozen, place in the oven for about 3 minutes then toss with olive oil, salt, pepper & garlic powder
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp pepper

Instructions

  • Pre-heat oven to 425. Cut okra in half, lengthwise. Toss with olive oil, salt and garlic powder
  • Spread the okra on a large baking pan, making sure not to overlap the okra - they won't roast if too crowded - just steam and end up soggy.
  • Bake for ten minutes, shake pan, and then place back in for another 5 - 10 minutes. Be careful not to burn.
