Ingredients:

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
4 large pears, peeled and cored
1 cup Cheverny cheese, crumbled
2 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon dried thyme
Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

Preheat your oven to 400 degrees.
Using a meat mallet, pound each chicken breast until they are an even thickness of 1/2 inch.
Cut each pear into 4 slices and toss them in a bowl with 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
Season the chicken with salt, pepper, and dried thyme.
Grease a baking dish or sheet with the remaining tablespoon of olive oil and place the chicken in a single layer.
Arrange the sliced pears on top of the chicken, overlapping slightly.
Drizzle honey on top of the pears and sprinkle with the crumbled Cheverny cheese.
Cover the dish with foil and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.
