Step 1

Make the squash: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Combine the squash, olive oil, chili powder, cumin, 1 teaspoon kosher salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a large bowl and toss until well coated. Transfer to a rimmed baking sheet in an even layer and drizzle with any remaining oil and spices from the bowl. Roast until browned and tender, 25 to 35 minutes.

Meanwhile, make the chipotle vinaigrette: Whisk together the chipotle, adobo sauce, agave, lime juice, vinegar and 1/2 teaspoon each kosher salt and pepper in a medium bowl. While whisking, slowly drizzle in the olive oil in a slow, steady stream until emulsified.
