Ingredients
  • 2 firm, ripe Bosc pears
  • 4 pieces of prosciutto, or use a good quality bacon
  • 4 sprigs fresh rosemary
  • 4 ounces mild goat cheese
  • 3 T butter
  • 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
  • 1/2 cup honey

Directions
  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  2. Cut up the butter, place it in an 8"x8" baking pan, and melt it in the oven.
  3. Peel the pears, slice in half lengthwise and core with a melon baller, leaving a nice, smooth semi-spherical cavity.
  4. Skewer each pear half with a rosemary sprig
  5. Fill the cavities in the pears with goat cheese.
  6. Wrap a slice of prosciutto (or bacon) around each pair half. Be sure to completely cover the cheese-filled cavity so that yummy chevre doesn't goosh out!
  7. Place pears, cut side down in the pan.
  8. Roast for 25 minutes or so, until the pears are softened but not until they're mushy.
  9. Remove from the oven and place pear halves on serving plates.
  10. Stir the balsamic vinegar and honey into the butter in the pan.
  11. Drizzle the balsamic glaze over the pears.
  12. Serve immediately.
  13. Try a nice Gewurtztraminer with this!

This sounds absolutely divine! I have saved it and have it on my must-try-very-soon list. I have a very nice 12 year old balsamic that I think will be excellent. I will post a rating as soon as I try it. Thanks for posting!


All I can say is, delicious! This sounds like something over the top good!


Notcho's got it going on and so do you. Yum.
