Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Acorn Squash

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Cut the acorn squash in half, scoop out the seeds, and brush the cut sides with 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place cut-side down on a baking sheet and roast for about 25-30 minutes until tender.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Pork Chop

    While the squash is roasting, season the Berkshire pork chop with salt, black pepper, and fresh rosemary. Heat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Grill the pork chop for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C). Let it rest for 5 minutes before serving.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Asian Pear

    While the pork chop rests, slice the Asian pear into thin wedges. You can serve these raw or lightly grill them for a couple of minutes on each side for a warm option.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Dish

    On a plate, place half of the roasted acorn squash, top with the grilled pork chop, and garnish with the Asian pear slices. Serve with a generous spoonful of cranberry mostarda on the side.
