Cut each pear lengthwise into quarters. Using amelon baller or

grapefruit spoo, create a well in the center of each quarter. If

pears are very small, consider using halves instead of quarters.

 

In a small bowl, prepare chutney by mixing together lime juice and

zest, red pepper, garlic, soy sauce, brown sugar and peanuts. Spoon

chutney in hollowed out section of pear quarters. Add a sprig of mint

for garnish. Place on a serving tray. Makes 12 appetizers.

 

Helpful hint: Chutney can be prepared up to a week in advance. To

avoid browning, cut pears no earlier than a few hours before serving;

then sprinkle with lime juice.
