These are delicious hot or at room
temperature. Fresh figs have a very
short season so when you see them in the market grab them, they may not be
there next week. This recipe is very
easy to increase or decrease and is a Tyler Florence recipe.
- 40 small fresh mission figs
- 4 ounces Manchego or Maytag blue cheese
- 20 slices prosciutto, halved lengthwise
- Freshly ground black pepper
1. Preheat the oven
to 400°
2. Make a small slit
in the side of each fig and stuff a raisin-size piece of cheese in the opening.
3. Wrap a piece of
prosciutto around each to enclose like a little cocoon. Stand the figs on a
sheet pan.
4. Bake for 12 to 15
minutes so the prosciutto melts slightly and forms a skin around the figs.
Season with lots of
ground black pepper.
