Yield Makes 3 cups

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 cup pecans, broken into pieces
1/3 cup raisins
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
3 medium shallots, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon sugar
3 large Bosc or Bartlett pears, (about 2 pounds), peeled and diced
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, coarsely chopped

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. Spread pecans on a baking sheet, and toast until lightly browned and fragrant, about 10 minutes. Remove from oven, and set aside to cool.
  • In a small saucepan, combine raisins with 2 tablespoons vinegar and 2 tablespoons water. Place over medium-high heat until simmering. Simmer until raisins have plumped, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat, and set aside.
  • Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add shallots, and saute until lightly browned and transparent, about 3 minutes. Sprinkle with sugar, and continue to cook until golden brown. Add pears and reserved raisins in their liquid; cook until pears are tender. Add remaining 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar, and cook until slightly thickened, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Stir in rosemary and reserved toasted pecans. Serve warm.

Followed the recipe and the chutney turned out too sweet for my liking. I think I'll reduce the amount of sugar next time.
