Caramelized Pear And Arugula Salad
- 2 whole Firm Brown Pears
- 4 Tablespoons Butter
- 3 Tablespoons White Wine Vinegar
- 1 Tablespoon Brown Sugar
- 1/2 cups Walnuts
- 5 ounces, weight Soft Blue Cheese (such As Cambozola)
- 4 ounces, weight Arugula Or Mixed Greens
- 1. Wash, core and quarter the brown pears.
- 2. Place the butter, vinegar and brown sugar in a nonstick skillet over medium heat.
- 3. When the butter is melted, add the walnuts and pears (flesh-side down) to the skillet and cook for 8 minutes, until the pears are just softened. Turn the pears halfway so that both sides of the flesh get browned.
- 4. Cut the blue cheese into slices or wedges.
- 5. Place the arugula or mixed greens on serving plates and top with the pears and walnuts. Spoon the pan juices over the salad and top off each plate with a slice or two of blue cheese.
