Prosciutto Wrapped Figs
Servings
16Serving size
1/2 fig with prosciutto
Ingredients
| 8 medium (2-1/4 inch dia) Figs, raw (sliced in half lengthwise) |
| 2 ounce Semisoft goat cheese |
| 1 to taste Black pepper |
| 1 ounce Prosciutto |
| 1 spray Spray olive oil |
Instructions
Spray a large skillet with spray oil and add the figs, cut side up.
Divide the goat cheese evenly between the 12 halves of the figs, stuffing the goat cheese in the small hole in the center of the fig.
Allow the figs and cheese to sit at room temperature until the goat cheese is soft enough to spread evenly over the top of the figs.
Grind the black pepper over the stuffed figs.
Cut the prosciutto into 16 squares (about 8 squares per slice) and place 1 square on top of each fig.
Place the figs in the oven and cook for 10 minutes. Serve immediately.

Recipe Notes
This recipe is simple but its flavors are complex. It’s not rocket science to put these ingredients together, but the balance of the sweetness, creaminess, umami, saltiness, and the pop of the black pepper makes this an exceptional appetizer.
