Ingredients:
Amount Ingredient
3 jar pear puree (baby food), 4 oz jars
1/3 cup Granulated sugar
1 tsp Minced fresh ginger
1/2 cup Fresh orange juice
1 tsp Salt
1/2 tsp Pepper
4 x Skinless boneless chicken breast halves
3/4 cup Ground hazelnuts (filberts)
3/4 cup Crushed corn flake crumbs
1/4 cup Rice vinegar
1/2 tsp Crushed red pepper flakes
4 x Green onions, chopped
2 x Firm pears, peeled, cored, cut in large chunks
Instructions:
Instructions: In a heavy sealable plastic bag, mix puree, sugar, ginger, orange juice, salt and pepper. Add chicken, turn to coat; marinate in the refrigerator for 2 - 4 hours, turning once or twice.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a flat pan, mix hazelnuts and crumbs.

Remove chicken from marinade and shake off excess. Dredge in crumb-nut mixture, pressing so coating adheres. Spray a rack with nonstick cooking spray and place in a flat baking dish; arrange chicken on rack. Bake for 15 - 20 minutes until golden, crisp and cooked through.

Pour marinade into a medium saucepan; add vinegar, pepper flakes and onion.

Bring to a boil; cook 2 minutes. Lower heat, add pears and heat just until pears are warmed through; do not overcook. Divide greens among 4 serving plates; spoon pears on top with a slotted spoon and drizzle a little of the warm marinade mixture over. Place one chicken breast half beside each warmed salad.
