Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 pieces fresh figs
- 4 ounces goat cheese
- 8 slices prosciutto
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
Instructions
Wash the figs thoroughly under cold water and pat them dry with a kitchen towel.
Using a small knife, make a cross-shaped incision at the top of each fig, being careful not to cut all the way through. Gently press with your fingers to open the fig slightly.
Crumble the goat cheese into small pieces. Stuff each fig with about 1/2 ounce of goat cheese, pressing it lightly into the opening.
Wrap each stuffed fig with a slice of prosciutto, making sure the prosciutto is snug but does not tear. The prosciutto should hold the fig and cheese together.
Arrange the wrapped figs on a serving platter.
Drizzle the honey evenly over the figs, letting it coat the prosciutto slightly.
Sprinkle fresh thyme leaves over the top for a touch of herbal aroma.
Finish with a light sprinkle of freshly ground black pepper for added depth of flavor.
Serve immediately and enjoy this combination of sweet, salty, creamy, and savory flavors!
