I made up one day on a whim because I had some pears about to go bad and some chicken... It is really delicious and easy to make! If you do not have Brie, I have made it with other cheeses. Use this as a base and play with flavor combos! —ginnygetsfloury

  • 4 Slice of Bread
  • 1 Chicken Breast
  • 3 tablespoons White Worcestershire Sauce
  • 1 Pear
  • 1 teaspoon Thyme
  • 2 tablespoons Butter

Directions
  1. Marinate the chicken in the worcestershire sauce for a least 2 hours and up to a day beforehand.
  2. Grill the chicken until cooked through.
  3. Slice the pear into strips around the core.
  4. Heat 1 tablespoon butter in a frying pan over medium heat until melted.

Made this tonight. I followed the recipe to the letter.
WOW!!! My peeps were awed by my "grilled cheese" dinner.
Real simple + so gourmet.
