Preheat oven to 425u00b0F (220u00b0C). In a large bowl, toss sliced squash with 2 tablespoons (30mL) olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Arrange in even layers on 2 rimmed baking sheets and roast until browned and tender, about 45 minutes. Let cool slightly.

Meanwhile, in a skillet, combine pork with 1 tablespoon (15mL) olive oil and thyme, if using, and cook over medium heat, stirring, until pork is crisp and fat has rendered, about 7 minutes. Remove from heat and discard thyme. Stir in red wine vinegar, remaining 3 tablespoons (45mL) olive oil, and parsley and chives. Keep vinaigrette warm.

Using a thin metal spatula, lift squash from baking sheets. Arrange on a serving platter. Spoon warm vinaigrette on top. Garnish with crumbled egg yolks and grated cheese and grate more fresh black pepper on top. Serve.
