Chicken Stir Fried With Bosc Pears

Asian pears are now available anywhere...i found them at wal-mart! I've tried a whole lot of stir fry combinations (probably close to 200!) and this one from eileen yin-fei lo is truly phenomenal. The shallots, pears, asparagus and macadamia nuts go great together - i know it sounds odd but you've got to trust me on this one. Cook time includes marinade time.
