Directions
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
- Halve pears, remove seeds, brush with olive oil and season with salt & pepper.
- Place pears on grill, cut side down. Grill for about 3-4 minutes until they develop grill marks and caramelize. Don’t move them too much to allow for caramelization.
- Remove the pears from grill and set aside.
- In a small bowl, combine blue cheese and heavy cream, mixing until smooth and creamy.
- Put bread on grill. Toast for about 1-2 minutes on each side until they are lightly crispy with grill marks.
- Brush toasted bread with remaining olive oil mixed with some roughly chopped mint.
- Place a grilled pear half on each slice of toasted ciabatta.
- Drizzle the blue cheese cream over the grilled pears.
- Top with a slice of prosciutto, more fresh mint leaves and another drizzle of cream.
- Sprinkle with grilled herbs for added smoky flavor and aroma.
- Serve immediately while still warm.
