Ingredients

1 1/2 cups ( 1/2 bottle) sweet Muscat wine such as Muscat de Beaumes de Venise
3 tablespoons honey
1/2 cup orange juice
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
6 firm ripe pears, peeled, cored and halved
3 tablespoons orange marmalade

Steps:

Combine the wine, honey, orange juice and coriander in a non-reactive three-quart sauce pan. Bring to a simmer and simmer for five minutes.
Add pears and cook until they are just tender, about 15 minutes. Remove pears to a serving dish with a slotted spoon, draining them well.
Boil cooking liquid until reduced by half. Stir in marmalade. Pour syrup over pears. Serve warm or cool.
