Instructions

Roast the Butternut
1

Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7.
Trim the butternut squash, halve lengthways, then scoop out the seeds (peel first if you prefer). Cut into 2cm chunks.
Pop the squash onto a large baking tray. Drizzle with oil, season with salt and pepper then toss to coat.
When the oven is hot, roast on the top shelf until tender and golden, 25-30 mins. Turn halfway through.

Fry the Veg
2

Meanwhile, halve, peel and thinly slice the red onion. Halve the pepper and discard the core and seeds. Slice into thin strips.
Heat a drizzle of oil in a large frying pan on medium-low heat. When hot, add the onion, pepper and a pinch of chilli flakes (careful, they're hot) to the pan.
Gently cook, stirring occasionally, until the peppers and onion are soft, 15-20 mins.

Get Prepped
3

While the veg cooks, peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press). Halve the tomatoes. Zest and halve the lemon.
Roughly chop the parsley (stalks and all). Pick the thyme leaves from their stalks and roughly chop (discard the stalks).
Tear the ciabatta into small, bite-size pieces.

Add the Tomatoes
4

When the squash has roasted for 10 mins, add the tomatoes and garlic to the tray with another drizzle of oil if needed. Gently mix together, then return to the oven for the remaining cooking time, 15-20 mins.
Meanwhile, combine the olive oil and sugar for the dressing (see ingredients for both amounts) with the zest and half the lemon juice in a large bowl.
Season with salt and pepper, mix well, then set your dressing aside.

Croutons Time
5

Pop the ciabatta onto another baking tray. Drizzle with oil, then scatter with the thyme leaves and a pinch of salt. Toss to coat, then spread out in a single layer.
Bake on the middle shelf of your oven until golden, 8-10 mins. Gently shake halfway through.

Assemble your Panzanella
6

Once the peppers and onion are cooked, stir in the capers, then transfer to the dressing bowl.
When ready, add the roasted veg and croutons to the same bowl and gently mix. Let everything sit for a couple of mins (the ciabatta will absorb the flavours), then stir through the rocket and parsley.
Share the panzanella salad between your plates and crumble the Greek style salad cheese over the top to finish. Enjoy!

Review summary

Updated on Feb 2026
  • Flavour: Many enjoyed the combination of ingredients, with the lemon bringing out the flavours. Some found the capers added a nice sharpness.
  • Ease of prep: While some found it easy to make, others noted it was time-consuming for a salad. Consider simplifying the recipe steps.
  • Suggestions: Try adding anchovies for saltiness, or include chicken or halloumi for extra protein. Consider offering a brown bread alternative to ciabatta.
  • Next-day meals: Several customers mentioned it was good cold the next day, making it a great option for leftovers.
  • Texture: The crunchy croutons and thyme-flavoured ciabatta chunks were highlights, adding a pleasant texture to the dish.
