Instructions

1
Preheat oven to 325ºF. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
2
Remove stem from squash then cut in half above bulb section to get a straight section. Bulb section can be discarded or saved for another use.
3
Using a vegetable peeler, peel squash then thinly slice so it's thin but not see-through (a mandolin or box slicer can also be used for this).
4
In a large bowl, whisk together Worcestershire sauce, 2 tablespoons olive oil, liquid smoke, soy sauce, and pepper. Add squash slices and toss to coat.
5
Place a large skillet over medium-high heat and add 1 tablespoon oil. Cooking in batches, add squash to hot skillet and sauté 1 to 2 minutes or until edges start to brown. A little char is fine.
6
Lay squash in a single layer on prepared pan. Repeat with remaining squash then bake 15 to 18 minutes.
7
Remove from oven and sprinkle with kosher salt if desired. Let sit 10 to 15 minutes before serving.
