Roasted Pear Salad

From Culture Magazine:

Roasted Pear Salad
6 ripe (but not mushy) pears, cored, and sliced into 8 wedges
kosher salt and cracked black pepper
1/4 cup grapeseed oil

10 cups mixed greens
sliced Camembert cheese

prepared vinaigrette

Preheat a cast-iron skillet of heavy baking sheet in oven at 475 degrees. Toss pears with salt, pepper, and 1/3 of the oil. Once the oven is hot, work in batches, adding a light drizzle of oil to the pan and laying enough pear wedges flat side down to cover the surface of the pan. Roast in the oven for 2 minutes, then flip the pears over and roast 1 minute longer.

Toss greens in vinaigrette. Arrange on 8 plates. Place 6 roasted pear slices on each plate, several slices Camembert cheese, and a few croutons.
