    Ingredients

    • 4 semi-ripe medium pears, quartered and cored
    • 1 large red onion, cut into 8 wedges
    • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
    • 2 tablespoons sherry vinegar
    • Coarse salt and ground pepper
    • 2 sprigs rosemary

    Directions

    1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees. In a 9-by-13-inch baking dish, toss pears and onion with butter and vinegar. Season with salt and pepper. Arrange pears and onion in a single layer (they should fit snugly in dish) and top with rosemary. Cover dish tightly with foil and bake until pears begin to soften, 20 minutes. Uncover and bake until pears are golden brown on bottom and tender when pierced with a knife, 15 to 20 minutes more. Sprinkle with fresh rosemary leaves if desired and serve warm or at room temperature.

      Brought this to a potluck, and was very well received. Nice to match the savory spice of the rosemary with the sweetness of the pears. a quality sherry vinegar goes a long way (not an inexpensive item!). I made this without salt, and tasted just fine.
