Remove the pecans from the heat and roughly chop them. Set aside.
Arrange the arugula across a large serving platter. Sprinkle the chopped pecans and crumbled goat cheese over the arugula.
Fan out your slices of pear and apple and arrange them across the salad in the sections. Sprinkle all over with fresh pomegranate arils.
