- Preheat oven to 450u0b0F. Place squash in a roasting pan. Drizzle approximately 1/2 tablespoon of the olive oil over the squash and add salt and pepper. Toss until coated. Bake for 30 minutes or until squash is golden and softened.
- Heat remaining olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and cook for 6 minutes until softened and translucent. Add in garlic, sage and cayenne, cooking for another minute. Stir in the broth, bring to a boil then reduce heat to low.
