Ingredients
- 1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 2 Asian Pears sliced into 1/8-inch rounds
- 8 ounce log of soft goat cheese room temperature
- 6 ounces sliced prosciutto cut into strips, 1-inch wide by 3-inches long
- 1 3/4 ounce package radish microgreens
Instructions
- Add the lemon juice to a shallow bowl. Wash the pears and slice them in rounds with a sharp knife or mandoline. Dip each pear slice in the bowl with the lemon juice to keep the pears from discoloring.
- To assemble the appetizers: Transfer the pear slices to a paper-towel lined plate and lightly blot with another paper towel. Working with one slice at a time, cut the slice in half and spread a 1/4 teaspoon soft goat cheese on one half, add the other half of the pear slice, alternating the direction. Spread another 1/4 teaspoon of soft goat cheese to the top pear slice and top with a folded strip of prosciutto and a dab of the soft goat cheese and finish with the radish microgreens.
- Continue assembling the remaining pear slices, add to a serving plate, garnish with additional radish microgreens and serve.
