Method

Preheat the oven to 375°F. 

Generously season each chicken breast with salt and pepper. 

In a large, oven-proof skillet heat 1 tablespoon olive oil and sear breasts 2 to 3 minutes each side until lightly golden. 

Place pan in oven and bake until chicken is cooked through, about 15 minutes.

While chicken is cooking, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large pan over medium heat and sauté red onion until just softened, 2 to 3 minutes.

Add spinach and toss until wilted. Transfer to a large platter or divide evenly between 4 plates. 

Wipe out pan and heat remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil with cider vinegar. 

Add pears and gently heat until warm. 

Stir in parsley. 

Arrange cooked chicken breasts on spinach. 

Top with warmed pear slices and about 2 tablespoons blue cheese per breast.
