Ingredients

5 mins
10 servings
  1. 1 largesummer squash
  2. 3 tbspextra virgin olive oil
  3. 1kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
  4. 20fresh basil chopped. ( because I made a huge squash and after chopped it required a lot.)

Cooking Instructions

5 mins
  1. 1

    Heat the oil in an 11- to 12-inch skillet (preferably cast iron) over high heat until shimmering hot. Arrange the squash in the skillet, cut side down and in a single layer. Season with 1/4 tsp. salt and a few grinds of pepper.

  2. 2

    Sprinkle the fresh basil over the squash and sear the squash undisturbed until deep golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes. Using tongs, turn the squash onto the other cut side. Sprinkle with another 1/4 tsp. salt and cook until tender and nicely browned on the second side, about 2 minutes more. Transfer the squash and crisp basil to plates or a serving bowl.
