Description
As a good Southern gardener, I find myself bringing in okra by the armload nearly every other day. Stewed okra is great, but for a little variety, we like to roast ours from time to time. This is so simple and easy and the okra tends to not be nearly as gummy or slimy when roasted. Chopped tomato makes a great addition when we have some handy.
Ingredients
- 18 fresh okra pods, sliced 1/3 inch thick
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 teaspoons kosher salt, or to taste
- 2 teaspoons black pepper, or to taste

- Arrange okra slices in a single layer on a foil-lined baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
