Oven Roasted Okra

Ingredients

  • 1 pound okra caps removed (cut just below the "rim" at the stem end) and sliced lengthwise
  • 1 Tbsp pastured ghee melted (can substitute reserved bacon grease or pastured lard for dairy free)
  • 1/2 tsp house seasoning

Instructions

  • 1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
  • 2. Place sliced okra on roasting pan or baking sheet.
  • 3. Drizzle melted ghee over okra and use clean hands to massage until evenly coated.
  • 4. Spread okra evenly across pan and sprinkle with house seasoning.
  • 5. Roast for 10-20 minutes (10-15 for darker roasting pans and 15-20 for lighter baking sheets), or until desired browning and crispiness are achieved.
  • 6. Serve immediately.

Notes

Leftover okra can be reheated for a few minutes in a 350 degree oven to return it's crisp.
