Steps:
- 1. Clean and oil your grill grate. Turn on and heat to medium high heat.
- 2. Make the vinaigrette. In a small bowl, whisk together the shallots, garlic, both mustards, 2 tbsp. honey, and vinegar until completely combined. Slowly pour in the olive oil and whisk continuously to emulsify. (Save extra dressing to marinate pork or chicken for the grill).
- 3. Grill the Pears. Cut pears in half and scoop out the cores. Slice a piece off the skin side so it will lay flat without rolling. Brush with a light oil. Place pears cut-side down on the grill. Cover and cook until heated through and nice grill marks appear, about 10 minutes
- 4. Meanwhile. . .Toast walnuts in small pan over medium heat on stovetop until toasted, about 5 minutes. Pour walnuts in small bowl and while still warm add blue brie and mix so cheese melts. Add 1 tbsp. honey. Stir lightly to incorporate.
- 5. Toss arugula very lightly with vinaigrette. Divide onto four plates.
- 6. When pears are nicely grilled on cut side turn over and divide gorgonzola mixture among pears. Grill for a couple minutes more. Remove pears and place ½ pear on each of the four plates. Drizzle with spicy mustard vinaigrette. Serve warm and enjoy!!
