Time 55m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 pears, halved, but not peeled or cored
Extra-virgin olive oil
1/4 bunch fresh thyme
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup crumbled good-quality blue cheese
1/4 cup walnut pieces

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Arrange the pears, cut sides up, on a baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Strip the leaves from the thyme branches and sprinkle over the pears. Put the baking sheet in the oven and bake 20 minutes. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and spoon a generous teaspoon of crumbled cheese in the center of each pear half, return the pears to the oven and roast until they are tender and the cheese is soft, about 10 more minutes.
  • Meanwhile, put the walnuts on another baking sheet and toast in the oven until golden brown and fragrant, about 5 minutes. Chop. When the pears are cooked, transfer them to a serving plate and sprinkle the toasted walnuts over the top. Serve hot.

Not a fan of blue cheese, so I substituted goat cheese instead. It was still very good.

The pears were a bit too tart for my taste, but the blue cheese and walnuts helped to balance out the flavor. Overall, it was a good dish.

Roasted pears with blue cheese and walnuts is a beautiful and delicious dish. The pears are roasted until tender and caramelized, and the blue cheese and walnuts add a salty, nutty flavor. Absolutely scrumptious!
