This roasted okra recipe turns out crisp-edged and tender! All you need is a hot oven, olive oil, and 15 minutes.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 12 ounces okra
  • 1 1/2 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika or paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • Lemon wedges, for serving (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 450°F.
  2. Slice each okra pod in half lengthwise. Place the okra in a medium bowl and mix with the olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, and kosher salt.
  3. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place the pods face-down on the baking sheet in an even layer. Roast for about 15 minutes until tender and lightly crisped at the edges. Serve immediately, spritzed with lemon wedges if desired (best eaten right out of the oven, but you can refrigerate leftovers for up to 3 days).
