INSTRUCTIONS
In a heavy sealable plastic bag, mix puree, sugar, ginger, orange
juice, salt and pepper. Add chicken, turn to coat; marinate in the
refrigerator for 2 - 4 hours, turning once or twice. Preheat oven to
350 degrees. In a flat pan, mix hazelnuts and crumbs. Remove chicken
from marinade and shake off excess. Dredge in crumb-nut mixture,
pressing so coating adheres. Spray a rack with nonstick cooking spray
and place in a flat baking dish; arrange chicken on rack. Bake for 15
~ - 20 minutes until golden, crisp and cooked through. Pour marinade
into a medium saucepan; add vinegar, pepper flakes and onion. Bring to
a boil; cook 2 minutes. Lower heat, add pears and heat just until
pears are warmed through; do not overcook. Divide greens among 4
serving plates; spoon pears on top with a slotted spoon and drizzle a
little of the warm marinade mixture over. Place one chicken breast
half beside each warmed salad. NOTES : * Third Place, 1997 Oregon
