Instructions

Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Cut the patty pan squash into 1/2-inch wedges. Thinly slice the onion. In a large bowl, combine the squash, onion, olive oil, coriander, salt, and pepper. Toss to ensure the vegetables are well coated. Spread the mixture evenly on the prepared baking sheet. Set the bowl aside.
Roast in the preheated oven until the squash is tender and lightly browned, approximately 20 to 25 minutes.
In the reserved bowl, mix together the melted butter, lemon zest, lemon juice, and fresh chives. Add the roasted squash to the bowl; toss gently to coat. Serve immediately and enjoy!
