Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 pieces Fresh figs
- 6 ounces Goat cheese
- 6 slices Prosciutto
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme leaves
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven broiler to high and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Gently rinse the figs under cold water, pat dry, and slice each fig in half lengthwise.
Using a small spoon or your fingers, scoop approximately 1/2 teaspoon of goat cheese onto the cut side of each fig half.
Cut each slice of prosciutto in half lengthwise so that you have 12 thin strips of prosciutto.
Wrap each goat cheese-filled fig half with a strip of prosciutto, securing it tightly. Place the wrapped figs seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
Drizzle honey evenly over the wrapped figs, sprinkle with fresh thyme leaves, and season lightly with black pepper.
Place the baking sheet under the broiler and cook for 3-5 minutes, or until the prosciutto starts to crisp and the goat cheese is warmed through.
Remove from the oven, let cool slightly, and transfer the prosciutto-wrapped figs to a serving platter. Serve warm and enjoy!
