Roasted Pear Sangria Recipes

Steps:

• Split the pears in half and cut out the core. Brush the flesh with 2 tablespoons olive oil and place face down on a hot grill. Wrap the garlic and shallots in an aluminum foil pouch, pour in 2 tablespoons olive oil along with a little bit of water to create steam and seal. Place the packets on the hot grill and roast until soft, about 15 minutes. In a saucepan, combine remaining oil, chicken broth, rosemary and vinegar. Add the grilled pears, roasted garlic and shallots to the saucepan. Cook until the mixture reduces by half. Transfer the sauce to a blender and puree until smooth. Serve with Leg of Lamb.

Steps:

• Put 1 tablespoon of the roasted pear puree into a Champagne flute and add pear nectar 1/4 way up the glass. Top off with Champagne. Repeat with remaining drinks. Serve immediately.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Put 2 pieces of foil on a flat surface and place 1 pear in the center of each. Drizzle both with the honey and loosely wrap them in the foil, leaving the top open. Place the pears in the top half of the oven and roast until they are buttery soft, about 50 to 60 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool. Peel the skin off with your hands and pull the flesh away from the core. Place in a blender with any accumulated juices and puree until smooth. Pour into a container and refrigerate until ready to use.
