Preparation

Preheat oven to 400F and line a rimmed baking sheet with foil. Toss squash with olive oil, season with salt and pepper and place on prepared sheet. Roast until squash is golden brown, 20-25 minutes.

Meanwhile, bring the chiles, vinegar, honey, raisins and a pinch of salt to a boil in a small saucepan over medium heat. Reduce heat to low and simmer until syrupy, 8-10 minutes.

Toss warm squash in the sweet and spicy sauce and mix to combine. Serve.
