This quick and easy recipe has the best combination of crisp, fall flavors and can be served either as a side dish or a main course with the addition of any protein (we recommend grilled chicken). The crunchy Gem pears, tangy balsamic dressing, and peppery arugula work together to create a unique combination that will leave you wanting another scoop.

This dinner will impress any guest and leave them feeling satisfied and full. Ginger and fresh GEM pears are poached in a luxurious savory and sweet sauce that reduces to coat a deliciously crispy seared pork chop. Garlic polenta absorbs the extra pear ginger sauce, and roasted broccoli adds a bit of fresh green. We guarantee you'll want to lick the plate clean!

This flatbread is such a perfect addition to your dinner party, cheese board companion, or afternoon snack. A buttery puff pastry crust adds an amazing savory base, and thinly sliced, GEM pears add a burst of sweetness to even out the spicy chorizo.
