Recipe - Quick Saute Of Pears With Raspberry Sauce

6 Ripe pears with raspberry
sauce
One half Lemon
2 tablespoon Butter
3 tablespoon Liqueur such as Triple Sec,
Cointreau or Grand Marnier
One half cup Strained raspberry preserves
One fourth cup Toasted cut or sliced up blanched
almonds,; optional
Frozen yogurt or whipped
cream,; optional

With a stainless steel knife, peel and core the pears. Cut them into
eights. Rub them with lemon so they do not discolor. Set them aside in a
covered bowl in the refrigerator until you are ready to use them. Melt the
butter in a large skillet. Saute the pears over high heat for 3 to 4
minutes or until they begin to brown. With a slotted spoon, transfer the
pears to a serving platter. Deglaze the pan with liqueur and raspberry
preserves and reduce until syrupy and thick. Spoon over the pears and
garnish with almonds and frozen yogurt or whipped cream if you wish.
