  • In batches, lightly saute the pumpkin slices in a single layer, turning once, until lightly browned and just tender, about 6 minutes.

  • Season with salt and pepper; transfer to a platter with a slotted spoon; set aside.
  • Return the pan to medium heat and add the onion.

  • Arrange a layer of pumpkin slices in the bottom of an 13 x 9 inch baking dish (or 11 to 12-inch square baking dish) with 3 inch sides.
  • Top with about 1/3 of the tomato sauce.
  • Repeat, making 3 layers each of pumpkin and sauce and ending with a layer of sauce.
  • Drizzle with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil.
  • Bake until the top is lightly glazed and browned in spots and the pumpkin is tender when pierced with a knife, 35-45 minutes, checking it after about 25 minutes.
