Preparation

Step 1

1. Heat the oven to 450°F.
2. Cut off the stem ends of the okra. Then cut them in half, lengthwise.
3. Place the cut okra in a large bowl. Then add the olive oil, thyme, rosemary, garlic powder, and salt.
4. Add black pepper and optional cayenne pepper powder to taste, and stir to coat the okra.
5. Place the okra on a baking sheet in a single layer. Roast in the oven for 15 minutes, then shake the pan or, using a spatula, stir the okra. Roast another 10 to 15 minutes, until the okra is lightly browned and tender.
6. Serve piping hot. So, so good!
