Honey Mustard Dressed Greens With Apple And Pear Food

HONEY MUSTARD SABAYONE OVER THYME ROASTED PEARS

Steps:

• SABAYONE: Set up a saucepan with 2 inches water over medium-low heat so the water steadily simmers. Set up a large ice bath. In a stainless steel bowl that can fit over saucepan, whisk together egg yolks and sugar and whisk in remaining ingredients. Set bowl over double boiler and whisk constantly until light and frothy and doubled in size, about 6 minutes. Do not let bowl touch simmering water. If egg mixture gets too hot it will scramble the eggs and you'll have to start over, so move the bowl back and forth from the heat and use ice bath if necessary. Serve sabayone warm over roasted pears for a sweet and savory dessert.
• PEARS: Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Toss pears with thyme, oil and a little tiny bit of salt and pepper in a mixing bowl. Pour them out onto a sheet pan and roast until tender, about 40 minutes.

HONEY MUSTARD CUTLETS

Steps:

• Line a baking sheet with a wire rack.
• Heat the oven to 275 degrees F.
• Trim the fat from the chops and sandwich each chop between 2 pieces of waxed paper or plastic. Pound the chops to 1/8-inch thickness and season with salt and pepper, to taste.
• In a shallow dish combine the mustard, honey and vinegar. Add the chops and turn to coat in sticky sauce. On a plate combine the bread crumbs with the thyme and zest of the lemon. Press chops in the crumbs to coat evenly. Heat the extra-virgin olive oil, a couple turns of the pan, in large skillet over medium heat. Cook the cutlets until crisp, 3 to 4 minutes on each side. Arrange the chops on the baking sheet with the rack and put in the oven to keep them crisp. To the skillet, over low heat, add the butter and melt. Whisk in the flour and cook for 1 minute. Stir in the preserves, then whisk in the stock. Cook for a couple of minutes to thicken and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Transfer the chops from the oven to a serving platter and douse with sweet-savory gravy before serving.
