Parmesan Delicata Fries

  • Author: Ann
  • Prep Time: 5 min
  • Cook Time: 5 - 10 min
  • Total Time: 10 - 15 min
  • Yield: 2 servings 1x
  • Category: Appetizer
  • Method: Air fryer
  • Cuisine: Italian
  • Diet: Gluten Free

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 delicata squash (mine was small, only 8 oz. after removing seeds & tops)
  • About 1 Tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/41/2 teaspoon granulated garlic
  • Red Robin Seasoning or your favorite seasoned salt
  • 24 teaspoons parmesan cheese (the powdered kind) + extra for the top
  • For the top: dried parsley

Instructions

  1. Preheat the air fryer to 400 F.
  2. Cut the top and bottom off the squash, then cut in half lengthwise. Scoop out the seeds and any stringy pulp. Set the squash sides, cut side down, on a cutting board and slice into very thin slices about 1/8 – 1/4 inch thick.
  3. Toss the squash with olive oil, then sprinkle with garlic, Red Robin Seasoning and Parmesan cheese and toss to coat. 
  4. Air fry for about 5 – 10 minutes, checking every few minutes and shaking the basket. Fries are done when bubbly and beautifully browned in some spots. Sprinkle with a little extra parmesan and parsley and enjoy with your choice of dipping sauce.

Notes

The thinner your slices are, the quicker they will cook, so watch them carefully! If your squash is large, you might need more oil and parmesan.

If you don’t have an air fryer, you can oven roast the fries instead. Set the oven to 450 F. and oven roast for 15 – 25 minutes.
