Ingredients:

Serving

4 pears, peeled, halved, cored
1/4 cup honey
2 tbsp brown sugar
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
2 tbsp olive oil
1/2 tsp thyme leaves, fresh
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper, freshly ground
1 pinch red pepper, ground
4 cups baby arugula, stems removed (or other bitter greens)
2 heads butter lettuce , torn into pieces
1/4 onion, small red thinly sliced
1/4 lb ham, cut into 1/4-inch cubes
1/2 cup pine nuts, toasted (or walnuts)
4 oz pecorino cheese, shaved

Directions:

Heat oven to 400 degrees. Lay pear halves cut side up in a baking dish; drizzle with honey. Bake until pears are soft, 20-25 minutes; sprinkle with the brown sugar. Turn on the broiler; broil pears until brown sugar begins to bubble, about 2 minutes. Let stand at least 30 minutes.
Whisk together the cider vinegar, olive oil, thyme, salt, black pepper and red pepper; set aside. Toss together the arugula, butter lettuce, onion and ham in a large bowl; divide mixture onto four plates. Place a pear half on side of each plate. Sprinkle with pine nuts. Drizzle each plate with dressing; top with pecorino shavings.
