Pancetta Crisps with Goat Cheese & Pear

Ingredients:

• 16 thin slices of pancetta
• 16 tsp of soft goat cheese
• 2 small very ripe pears, halved, cored & cut into 1/4 inch thick slices
• Fresh thyme leaves

To make:

• Preheat oven to 450
• Place pancetta in a single layer on a large rimmed baking sheet
• Bake about 10 minutes or until crisp
• Using a spatula, slide pancetta crisps to platter
• Top each with a tsp of goat cheese and 1 pear slice
• Sprinkle with thyme
• Enjoy!

Notes:

1. Thanks to my cousin, Kathleen, for this recipe.
2. Pear can be substituted for avocado
3. Pancetta will be VERY greasy after baking, I suggest patting the crisps with a paper towel to soak up some of the grease before adding the cheese and pears/avocado
