Wash and dry all produce. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Halve, core, and slice @pear{1%unit} into ½-inch wedges. Cut @demi-baguette{1%unit} into ½-inch cubes. Place pear and baguette cubes on separate sides of a #foil-lined baking sheet{}. Toss each with salt, pepper, and a drizzle of @olive oil{2%tbsp}. Bake until baguette is crispy and pears have softened a bit ~{10%minutes}.

Trim, then thinly slice @button mushrooms{8%oz}. Heat a drizzle of @vegetable oil{1%tbsp} in a #large pan{} over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms and cook until tender ~{7%minutes}. Remove from pan and set aside. Once pear and baguette cubes have baked 10 minutes, remove cubes from sheet and set aside. Flip pear and continue baking until browned ~{10%minutes}.

Heat a drizzle of vegetable oil in the pan used for mushrooms over medium-high heat. Season @skirt steak{12%oz} all over with salt and pepper. Add to pan and cook to desired doneness ~{4%minutes} per side. Remove from pan and let rest at least ~{5%minutes} before thinly slicing against the grain.

While steak cooks, halve remaining baguette lengthwise, then cut in half again crosswise to create quarters. Place half the @garlic herb butter{2%oz} and 1 tbsp olive oil in a #small bowl{}. Heat in microwave until butter is melted ~{30%seconds}. Drizzle mixture over cut sides of baguette. Place on another #baking sheet{} and toast in oven until golden ~{7%minutes}.

Add ⅓ cup water, 1 tsp @balsamic vinegar{3%tbsp}, @chicken demi-glace{2%tbsp}, and mushrooms to same pan over medium-high heat and stir, scraping up any brown bits on bottom of pan. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to low and let thicken ~{1%minute}. Add remaining garlic herb butter and stir until melted.

Toss together @arugula{2%bunches}, baguette cubes, remaining balsamic vinegar, and 1½ tbsp olive oil in a #medium bowl{}. Season with salt and pepper. Divide steak, salad, and garlic bread between plates. Drizzle sauce over steak. Top salad with pear and crumble over @ricotta salata cheese{1%oz}.
