Preheat oven to 400°F. Place pears in large bowl; toss with lemon juice and vanilla. Melt butter in large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Add sugar; shake skillet to spread sugar evenly. Place pears, cut side down, in skillet; drizzle with any remaining lemon juice mixture from bowl. Cook until sugar begins to dissolve and mixture bubbles all over, shaking pan often, about 5 minutes.
